Who makes a good quality 3/4" drive impact wrench

Looking for a gun with a proven track record and real world testimonials. Truck brands worth it ? Air Cat any good? Looking for a light weight composite or metal impact gun that will hold up and has great torque.

Suggestions?

IR 2141/2145 and the Aircat 1680, both work really well. 1680 is heavier being all metal. Both have good power.

I had demo'd a Matco MT2334 and wasnt impressed, disapointed actually. My well used 2141 had more torque.

Ir, cp, now we got some competitors but brand can be bought for *street* pricing with discount vendors or even auto parts sales flyers.
If I really had a specific demand got no problem with 3/4 air but would be hard pressed not too look at battery. Partially due to the cost of 3/4. I paid about 600 for mine, probably could have squeezed it for 5.

I've got both a 2145QiMax and a Proto J175 - I have beat both half to death, and I can honestly say I like the Proto better. It seems to hit a little harder, and is more comfortable to me.

I've been using the IR2145 for 5 years. No complaints, I really don't have any other 3/4 to compare it to but I never grab the shops 1" impact.

IR 2161 or 2925 are the most powerful air guns that are made. No problems knocking lug nuts off salt trucks or big equipment. Depends on how bad *** of a 3/4 gun you need the 2161 is $1000+ and the 2925 is like $1800 so not cheap but if you work on big things every day its a must have

Still very pleased with the CP 772H I bought new in 1999.
I have two 1" drive impacts for the heavier jobs, but that CP gets used the most.

2145 for ergonomics, 2925Ti if you want the most power and something indestructible. Big price difference though with the 2925s retailing for around 2 grand.
