One of favorite tool is the Ryobi nailgun. Same concept, even though a lot cheaper. Running a compressor and airgun for nails is extremely inconvenient. The gas ones are perhaps just as skookum, and nearly as convenient as these battery powered ones..!
I actually had the Ryobi originally but I kept getting a double strike when it was low on nails so I just went for this guy on a sale. Those passloads will chooch for a long time I've heard. Either way totally worth ditching the compressor. I am interested in Ryobis new framing nailer though. Waiting to hear what people think on it
It’s a really good nailer for sure but not perfect. I ended up gifting it to my dad and bought the Milwaukee. Honestly there are things I prefer from both models but I do prefer the M18
@@EngineersPerspective701 the main thing that turned me away from the Milwaukee is the air canister will eventually need service and they won’t sell you parts for it. You can pump it up yourself and regrease, but you really should replace the $1 seals in the canister and as far as I can tell, they won’t sell them to you. I bought a broken dewalt for $100. Probably cost me $50 or less to repair and it will hopefully work like new.
I wouldn’t recommend an 18ga nailer for fencing. Ideally a thin galvanized ring shank framing nail or collated nail would be best. You can get galvanized 15ga nails but not sure on ring shank. This would be your best finish nailer option.
I am heavily into Dewalt 20v and 12v lineup. However, as a nailer i have the Ryobi P320 model, 2 - 3 year olds one. Small size, balanced and does the job. I was looking at this unit from the upcoming BF sale. I think i will pass. The only reason i dont get the Dewalt nailers, is due to the large head and the wind up. For Nailers, i will stick with Ryobi.
I love mine. Especially that it doesn’t have a gas cylinder that starts leaking after a while.

Do you have anything of value to add, or are you just here for linguistic enforcement?

Can I use it for: baseboard, 1/4 round, crown molding, window/door trim?
Please advise
All the above!
Great, thanks
Is it nailer only, or stapler as well?
Nails only on this one
Good review. I was thinking of buying this but now I'll probably go elsewhere.

Can I use this for 17mm close board fencing?

The price and smaller size is a huge bonus!
