The Nail Gun (or Nailgun) was intended to be the primary weapon for the Scout.

Originally 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 their own individual textured models in the game files. It therefore would most likely have functioned in a similar fashion to the Medic's Syringe Gun.
