i cant see a need for a spacer when your gun has an adjustable drive depth. Just adjust it, practice on some scrap and robert's your dads brother.

Senco used to make what they called a flush nailer attachment for their earlier framing guns and we use them for sheet flooring.They used to be standard with the gun.All it is is a piece of pipe with a screw that attaches it to the safety trigger of the gun.I suspect that most guns are adjustable now,but if not you can easily make one.I have made one from a piece of electrical conduit before for a coil nailer when fixing blue board.You just need to trial and error a bit to get the length of it right.
