Slightly headed? Next we will see ' Slightly Headed Plus' [big grin]
I have the Grex 635 it has been excellent and leaves a very small hole , practically no mark other than the hole. I think from what I have read on here and elsewhere that the Grex, Omer, and Cadex are all very good.

Don't own either the Cadex or the Grex pin nailer but I have researched them extensively. They are made at the same factory with only minor modifications to differentiate them. Grex has stated that the reason they didn't choose to make the same modification Cadex has done (to fire slight head brads) is that slight head brads will not fire reliably in this design nailer. In other words, the slight heads are more susceptible to jamming to a degree that Grex felt did not meet their standards.
Having said that, many Cadex uses report no exceptional problems with slight brads. If it only increases the risk of jamming by 1 out of 1000 fires then maybe is is not a big deal (just made up that number). Personally I am leaning towards the Grex because I like the no compromise approach, they have a very extensive line of nailers and I like to standardize on brands, and of course, I like green.

ToolNut linked backed to this page... so resurrecting it.
I have the 635 and love the pinner. I am looking at either the 16g 1664 or 15g AF64. The reviews on Amazon are so so. Does anyone here own either or both of those? What are your thoughts?
Cheers
