I just bought the Milwaukee 15 gauge angled... fired 3 nails excitedly and I think it's going back. Just doesn't feel right compared to an air nailer to me, seems to have more kickback as there is less hammer speed I'm guessing, I don't like the weight balance, etc. Not impressed - it's going back to HD.
It doesn't seem to lack power. I just don't like anything else about it. And for $399 the kit only has a single 2.0 battery. I have a BAZILLION 5.0 batteries, and I'm up to 5 9.0 batts now... but in a nailer I'll definitely take a light-weight battery as the tools are heavy enough as it is. $50 premium for a single 2.0... pfft.
Get the Ryobi. Reviewed much better than the Milwaukee. No kickback, never locked-out, and sank all nails. as I type this, I amy be thinking of the brad nailer, but I've only heard great things about the Ryobi, nothing great about the Milwaukee. especially considering price
I wish it weren't so, but every once and a while there is a bad apple. I hoped better for the M12 vac and flashlight (black barrel), but was disappointed with both immediately. Can't wait for v2
