Check for ridges or other wear that with distort how the gun feeds and if you feel comfortable enough take off the cover the screws should be 3mm hex. take off the cap and remove the piston which is attached to the driver, inspect it, ( the driver) look down it to see if its bent or end is chipped.

SOURCE: How do you safely remove jammed nail gun?
Not sure exactly what Bostitch framer model you have, but if it is powered by compressed air, as long as you remove the air hose from the nail gun, there should be no risk of the nail gun firing while you remove the jammed nail. There should be a way to access the driver area from the top of the nail gun, even via a latch or a couple screws. Remove the top part of the driver area and that should give you access to the jammed nail, which you can remove. Use long nose pliers or something similar if the nails are really stuck.
