Where to Get Nail Gun Ammo

Buy Nails From NPCs in Diamond City and Goodneighbor

Fallout 4 - Nail Gun and Nails from Suggs

The Nail Gun uses Nails for ammo which can be very hard to find since there's no recipe for crafting them. Buying from NPCs is currently the only way to obtain them, outside of console commands. Some NPCs around Diamond City and Goodneighbor sell Nails in small amounts and you'll be able to buy some from Suggs, too.

Retrieve From Enemies Killed With a Nail Gun

Fallout 4 - Nails from Dead Bodies

Enemies that you kill with a Nail Gun have a chance to retain the nails you fired into them allowing you to retrieve some nails when looting the body. Always check the body for loot when killing an enemy with the Nail Gun.
