finish nailer

Any thoughts on the Ridgid angled finish nailer? I was going to pick up the Hitachi but might give the Ridgid a try.


Thanks,

Ron

What are you going to be using it for? In a shop, on site, running trim?

I use Porter Cable air nailers and the new Dewalt cordless finishing nailer, the type of job I'm doing depends on what gets used. If I'm doing a job that requires the compressor then the PCs get dragged out, if not the cordless gets used.

As far as angled vs straight design, I have stayed away from the angled versions because they seem to limit you to using certain brands of nails, where the straight versions give you more options in using a lot of brands.
