Conductor562 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Anybody here using Dewalt air nailers? Specifically the DWFB12233 18 gauge brad or DWFP72155 15 gauge finisher? Thinking of upgrading my old Senco guns and these caught my eye. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jronman Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 @Conductor562 I have been around a DeWALT battery nailer. I don't recall ever using one of their air nailers. Maybe one of DeWALT's battery nailers would be a better option or are you sticking with air nailers? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh, I'd love to have cordless guns, especially a finisher, but I just can't bring myself to pay up for them when 90% of their use is within 20 ft. of a 60 gallon compressor. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JimboS1ice Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 Their air nailers are probably great guns, just redlined bostitch nailers Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Travis, I've had the 15ga finisher for about five or six years. It's a great gun. I have the 20v gun now so don't really use the finisher anymore. It's rock solid, easy to maintain and I've never had a jam with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jronman Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 If I'm not mistaken Bostich makes SB&D's flagship nailers. Worst to best SB&D nailers: Porter Cable, Dewalt, Bostich? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BMack37 Posted March 19, 2017 Report Share Posted March 19, 2017 I've been looking at brad nailers and SB&D nailers all appear to be roughly the same. The Hitachis seem to be a good value, Amazon and Lowe's have them for $70 right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conductor562 Posted March 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 I ordered some parts for my old Senco gun, so we'll see how it goes. Parts should be here Thursday and I need a gun Saturday, so it could go either way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
