Mac air hammer

[Just_George]

What's anybody know about the Mac air hammers? Going tomorrow to look at the one pictured below, listed on local CL. Are they reliable, better or worse than others? Price is right, includes some chisels etc., just wondered what the general opinion of them is. Thanks in advance for any opinions...

I've always had good luck with mine. Just a note. I am pretty sure they are rebadged Ingersoll Rand.

I have one that I bought new years ago and It works when I need it.Occasionally it will just vent air out of it if I dont have the bit up against something.I oil it religiously and have never had any repairs or issues with it.

The chrome sleeve on the barrel will loosen up when using it for extended times but no big deal.

I say if the price is right go for it.

IR doesn't make those for MAC. Not entirely sure who does but the older ones were USA made and the newer revisions are Taiwan.
