The '''Nail Gun''' (or '''Nailgun''') was to be the primary weapon for the [[Scout]]. The Scout can be seen wielding it in [[Trailer 2]]. However, it was scrapped before the final release and the Scout was equipped with the [[Scattergun]] as a replacement. A closer look shows that it holds a drum magazine filled with a nail belt (which have their own individual textured models in the game files). It would likely have functioned in a similar fashion to the [[Medic]]'s [[Syringe Gun]].

The Nail Gun, also known as Nailgun, is a scrapped primary weapon for the Scout. It appears to be a white-and-grey pneumatic nail gun that would fire nail projectiles from a nail belt canister attached to the barrel.

The Scout can be seen wielding this weapon in Trailer 2 and the Illustrative Rendering in Team Fortress 2, showing it was still in the relatively late development state of the game. However, the weapon was scrapped before the final release for unknown reasons. The Scout was equipped with the Scattergun as a replacement.

Each nail on the weapon's magazine had its own individual textured models in the game files. It, therefore, would most likely have functioned similarly to the Medic's Syringe Gun.
