I used this nailer to finish my basement including the oak trim around the windows and doors. It never jammed. The penetration of the brads was adjustable and predictable. It's now a valuable tool in my workshop.
Great gun. I also discovered that tilting the nailgun slightly forward (toward the brad exit point also ensures a properly recessed brad. As a few previous commenters stated, I also, had to remove the no-mar pad and file down the workpiece contact a small amount to get the brads to recess properly. I love this product. I have used the nail gun quite a bit since I received it 6 weeks ago and I have yet to experience a miss fire. I can drive all brad lengths with a maximum setting of 90 lbs pressure. I would recommend the 7150-21 to anyone. Thanks Milwaukee.
The Milwaukee 18 gauge nailer is definitely a worthwhile investment. This tool is worth every penny. I do a fair amount of remodeling, and over the years I've learned that quality tools make the job easier and faster. As an owner of several other Milwaukee tools, I was impressed with the quality and ease of use of the tool.Pros:-Lightweight-Powerful (make sure you keep the air pressure around 100 p.s.i).-Easy to switch depth and switch between single fire and bump fire mode (though the uses for bump fire mode when installing trim is beyond me)-Well-balanced-Oil-freeCons:-Doesn't come with necessary air fitting-Made in Taiwan (every nailer is made there, however)I haven't had any problem with the nailer improperly setting the brads. Don't get yourself sucked into buying a cheap nailer, especially one that uses both brads and narrow crown staples since you'll end up with a larger hole to fill in later. The 5 year warranty is nice, but don't expect to use it.
My contractor buddy was installing some hardwood floors in my home and I was his laborer. This is a great nailer. I bought this do several rooms of crown moulding and it performed flawlessly. When his Dewalt was having issues face nailing,we used mine and was amazed at the price I paid and the performance. I highly recommend this to EVERYONE
very nice gun. great design, all the options, light weight. only downside would be the whole countersink issue the everybody seems to experience. i would highly recommend the milwaukee line of nailers
