You've already got a compressor? If so, just go to Harbor Freight and
get what you need for much, much less than $200. I'm really thinking
about getting a Dewalt cordless nailer, but that'll set you back ~$400.
Very, very convenient.

I bought the Porter Cable FN250B. It was capable of using the widest amount
of nail lengths for the projects that I was working on at the time.
Thanks to all who have replied but am still somewhat confused and am going
through the same bit of confusion I had before I purchased a framing nailer
several years ago. I am sort of prejudiced to Porter Cable because I already
have a FC350 and it's been a jewel. I notice that you can get a
DA250B/re-built direct from Porter Cable for $129. Has anyone had any
experience with re-builds? RM~

When did your medication wear off? Or are you just dumb or ignorant of
how news transfer occurs?
There is no guarantee that the original post ever even made it to his
news server.
There is no guarantee that the orignal post arrived before the
followup.
Providing at least a small quantity of the original post, to maintain
the context, is helpful. If you want people to listen to what you're
saying, make it easy for them. Otherwise, people will come to the
conclusion that you're just too high-maintenance.

There you go again. Other people should change newsreaders to suit
you. Other people should change news servers to suit you. All because
you're too bloody lazy to include enough of a previous post to indicate
context. Well, at least this time you DID leave in enough of my post to

My Porter Cable FC350 framing gun was so aggressive I was scared of it. I'm
70 yr old and don't have the strength to hold it at arms length like I could
at 21 and It would get off 3 or 4 rounds (nails) on a single pull of the
trigger, I would have nails whizzing by in every direction. I called PC and
told them that I needed a flack jacket or some kind of relief and they sent
me a much less aggressive trigger assembly that just releases one nail at a
time free of charge. RM~

I have two; a Porter Cable FN250B and a Porter Cable DA250B. I think
highly of them both, but if I had to have only one it would be the
DA250B.

Not high maintenance, just high, perhaps. I particularly enjoyed his
"I haven't found a post missing on the server I use EVER."
Isn't that a bit like, "Everyone who's not here, raise their hand?"
Like, how would he know?
You need to remember a few things:
"Finishing nailer" means a couple of
different things in that industry.
Finish Nailer for molding = 15 gauge 2.5" nails MAX
Finish Nailer for trim = 16 gauge 2.5" nails max.
Brad Nailer for trim = 18 gauge 2" nails max.
Pin Nailer for trim = VERY Small 1" max.
We won't go into wide crown staplers but you are
going to want one of those for fastning backs on
cabinets and other stuff.
Most of the above can be had for under $200
not including price of compressor.
Go here and browse your heart out....

The only one ever missing posts is Supernews due to their aggressive filtering

Supernews and Giganews are for binaries and have long retention times.
This one I post with is the finest text server on the planet...bar none. It's
free and YOU can't become a member.<g>
allnews.readfreenews is read only but it's the only server on the planet that
shows all the text posts in binaries groups without showing the binaries. Very
handy.
The 2 ISP servers I use for downloading but not posting because they display my

Nailers are like planes--you can't own just one.
I use a 15ga angle nailer, an 18ga straight finish nailer, a 1/4" crown
stapler, and in a couple of days a 23ga pin nailer.
IF you want it for baseboards and crown molding, get the 15 ga instead
of the 18 ga.

I forgot: all of them are Porter Cable, including my framing nailer (I
left that out, because that's probably not what you are looking for),
with the exception of the Cadex pinner. All the PC nailers I have work
fine for me. No jams, they sink the nails in below the surface, and I
don't mind adding a couple of drops of oil to them no and again.

I would do the touchy feely thing. Many of the cheaper units may not feel
great after a few hours of shooting. Pay attention to the guards also many
are pretty flimsy and slip around.
Personally I prefer Senco.

I like Porter Cable. They are quality, not as good as Senco, but half
the price. There are several models depending on your specific
applications. I have the Porter Cable BN200A which can drive a
variety of brad sizes.

HUGE difference.
A finish nailer is a Real nail with holding strength on it's own that comes in
2.5 inch lengths and has many more uses around the home than a brad nailer.
I hardly touch my brad nailer anymore as a result.
A finish nailer makes the best third hand you can ever have. It is super light
weight.
If you have ever struggled with big lumber like framing, decking, etc by
yourself a finish nailer is perfect for tacking shit in place before you bring
out the framing nailer or screws.
Great tool IMO.

Mine are marked too, but since I didn't want to take a chance, I
verified with a magnifier. Now that I'm sure the marks indicate "down",
I'll just refer to the marks in the future. Thanks for mentioning it.
One thing I can't get it to do is toe nail without the pins making a
U-turn. :) I tried ply/ply and oak/oak. More than 1/2 the pins did a u-ey.

Then change servers.
There are a dozen free news servers that don't lose posts.
I haven't found a post missing on the server I use EVER.

Then you're just dumb or ignorant of how news readers work.
Use the reference message ID in the 'non quoting poster's' header to bring up
and read the post to which he is referring. If your news reader doesn't allow
this, get a better news reader.

I have 2, an oil free 15ga and a 'grease at your own risk' 16ga.
I highly recommend ANY finish nailer that is oil free.
The 'occasional used like me can sometimes over oil these puppies ending up
with oil stains on the wood.
So I rarely trust my oiled 16ga and always use my oil free 15ga on the good
stuff.
I've also found 15ga nails don't go nuts as often as the thinner 16ga and make
UTurns at the slightest whiff of a knot.

Ditto ... my PC finish nailer is a work horse. The only problem I have with
it is when I shoot all the nails and think it's still loaded. Other than
that, it is pretty damn hard to beat.

I've just about decided that's the one I'm going to go with. I have a PC
FC350 framing gun and a C H brad nailer. I'm hoping amazon will come up with
a re-built DA250b.
Thanks, RM~

Now I see that Amazon has them new for the same money, $129 but show the
re-build as "unavailable", maybe I'll hold off and see if they become
available at Amazon. RM~
PS, Like everyone else, I'm looking for the mostest for leastest. :-)

I've had a 23 Ga. PC pin nailer for a while and wonder why I waited so
long to get one. The holes are so tiny they virtually disappear. But,
it is not a nail gun. It is great, though for attaching molding or
other parts that you are glueing. As Dave pointed out the pins are
headless but the ones that came with the gun and the ones I bought are
marked with arrows so you aren't as likely to install them backwards.

No, YOU are the ignorant one here. My newsreader does just fine
following threads, but when I'm using my handheld, I can't keep every
message on it, so they are deleted after I read them. I'm then left
with only the new messages the next time I pull messages. It's also
PROPER netiquette (something you OBVIOUSLY know nothing about) to quote
the relevant pieces of what you are responding to.
Now, continue with your ignorant life.

I just got my Cadex today. The "nails" are so tiny I had to get a
magnifying glass to figure out which way to load the magazine, because
they are headless. The gun also shoots small head nails too.

Closest HF to me is about 40 or so miles and hard to get to. I only go
there if I happen to be in the neighborhood, which is almost never. I
used to order from the web, but I can't seem to figure out how to do
that since they changed their website.
