ok Looks like you want to "fire" the nails during continious x travel ?
i am sure that will not work because:
-you can not execute GCode while other GCode (X/Y travel) is running.
the normal way to do this is like this
G1 X10 F2000
M444
G1 X60 F2000
M444
G1 X110 F2000
M444
... and so on.
tha macro M444 (just an example random number) will have the code to enable the nailgun.
