Buy it, you WILL like it, it will do the work of 99 percent of any brand of off breed 1/2" drive impacts for automotive applications. Hell, a MG-31, (or was it an IM-31) was a better impact than the 1/2" drive wanna bees.

OH YEAH great price 359 is the current retail.

I"m honestly surprised it hasn't sold yet. I paid $225 for mine when they 1st came out and it was worth every penny.

 

[GTO]

I have the MG-31 and paid $165 for it on fleabay.

Another new on is also listed, currently at $163 shipped.

The $190 seller only has 21 feedback, says new, says warranty, but is the warranty from Snapon and when did it start?

Im looking at ether the 2115QTiMAX or the MG325 with a muffler kit, My only problem with the snapon gun being its predecessor the MG31, In my personal experience, the MG31 was one of the worst tools I have ever used

Wow, hadn't heard that about the MG31, was giving it serious thought due to low prices from the 325 coming out. What was the problem?

No trigger control- on or off
weak
loud
PITA power adjuster/direction control
very cumbersome and clunky compared to other 3/8" impacts

those tools have a lot of followers who love 'em, My experience with it was very negative.

I had one for a year and a half, pile was in for warrenty work more than I used it. It finally got lost in transit somehow? and I got a brand new MG325 for my troubles, and I love the 325. The 31 was a pile, my #1 complaint was trigger control. It was either on or off, then once every 50 times I hit the trigger ever so gently to smoothly romove a bolt it would hit full throttle and break the fastner. It would sing at full bore until I killed the air supply, reconnect air and no more issues for another 50 uses.
