Never been happy with a Ryobi tool untill now: Ryobi Brad Cordless Nailer

[w802h]

I'm glad you are happy with the Ryobi gun; I found it deficient.  I too was hoping not to buy the cartridges, but for me, the most important thing is a tool that performs.  I've used a Paslode 16 gauge angled gun for site work for more than 15 years with good results!  I have the ability to share gas with the Paslode brad nailer.  A pneumatic brad nailer, my standard for performance, stays in the shop and gets plenty of use too.  For most applications I'm using these guns to secure trim and smaller moldings (not 2x framing lumber), in people's finished homes.  A light set-up is nice in the field!

Does anyone like the Milwaukee 2742 angle finish nailer?

Dewalt is expensive and has service issues.

Rigid???

Ryobi is more consistent and does less damage to the surface.

I've had both the Ryobi and Milwaukee 15 ga mailer.  The Milwaukee is much better - fewer misfires, faster re-fire rate, very reliable.

I also have the M18 Milwaukee and love it. The only thing I dislike from the gun is the power switch. Why didn't they came up with a sliding switch instead  [mad]

Ryobi? I would have to paint the tools like Jimmy Diresta did  [tongue]
