ChrisK Posted June 15, 2016 Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 unboxing video guys. More to follow on my opinion. Really nice but I just like the feel of the yellow better. I have t tried her out yet though, so I'll pass on judgement! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisK Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Hahahaha me neither dude. Me neither. Four is not a good number in this particular warranty case! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted June 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2016 Let me add though! The machine is being prematurely judged by me! I have to run some brads, I think this might actually be a decent unit! It's just if team yellow came out with one in the 20v line it'd be better! God knows they have an 18v one! What the heck?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnarlyCarl Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Hey Chris did I ever tell you I appreciate you not bashing a brand but simply stating your disappointment and keeping a cool head? I mean you have high expectations since you're a festool snob and all ? so it's refreshing not reading blatant profanities or pointless shots at one brand or another(comical shots are fun though) And it's not just because I'm a big Milwaukee fan either. There are brands I've really come to detest but all I'll ever do is offer my experience and disappointment with them and let someone else choose to buy them or not, not going to fly off my handle on a mindless rampage, after all, that energy is reserved for keeping up with my son lol!!

There is nothing wrong with honest opinions, sharing of experiences and differences of opinions at that. I think it is truthfully because deep down everyone knows Bosch is the best!

Sent from my XT1585 using Tapatalk Thanks @KnarlyCarl I appreciate that! I really think this thing might do pretty good. I miss my Airstrike but this is certainly a step up! The controls are pretty cool and after shooting the video, my neighbor Guy came over. Had a beer shot the crap and when he left I was packing up all my stuff before my wife came home and the Milwaukee was still powered up and ready to go. Pretty neat. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Glassey Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 I'm sure you will like it Chris. You will use it the way it's intended to be used. And it will operate just fine. Enjoy it.

John Glassey Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 It is heavy am I right? But still manageable don't want to sound to wimpy lol. [emoji1320] John, Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk[emoji848] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisK Posted June 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 John, it is heavy but it's not unmanageable at all. My airstrike was pretty heft too. For some reason my Dewalt DCN660 seems to be a little bit lighter but this nailer isn't that bad. I will probably end up selling this one but it really does have some pretty neat features. I am just not vested in the line 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Glassey Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 Yeah Chris, I have the Brad nailer and stapler airstrikes and compared to the 15ga finish nailer they are really light lol. I do have a 5.0 battery on there too! but that's all I have. I guess I will be getting a 2.0 real soon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think this Milwaukee is going to work out pretty well. You all know I have an opinion one way or the other but the reviewer that bashed this tool.....well.....he's a tool. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WigWagWorkshop Posted June 16, 2016 Report Share Posted June 16, 2016 I'm hoping DeWalt will come out with an 18 gauge Brushless Nailer too. Looking forward to your next video on this nailer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Julian Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 I recently got the m18 Brad nailer, but just got the bare tool and don't have a case/bag for it. Does anyone know if it would fit in the Milwaukee job site organizer if you removed all the bins and cut out the one divider?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bremon Posted January 10, 2017 Report Share Posted January 10, 2017 I can't confirm but I can tell you my DCN660 won't fit sideways in a ToughSystem box so I'm inclined to say I doubt it. They are too long front to back / too square shaped to fit in little rectangular boxes generally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daniel Julian Posted January 11, 2017 Report Share Posted January 11, 2017 It fits! Used some foam from an old car seat cushion. Still has room for a long bin to hold packages of brads and 1 small bin for whatever and just enough room to tuck in any xc (3.0, 4.0, or 5.0... maybe 6.0) battery. Don't need a battery this big, but I don't have an extra slim pack. When the box is stood up (carried) it holds it tight and the weight of the tool actually hangs from the bit of divider I left in there. Glad I didn't cut it all the way out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it bugged me that was the only XC battery that didn't say what ah it was. I accidentally grabbed it one day thinking it was one of my 5.0's. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
