This is a great nailer to tack pieces together for glueing. Almost waited for the pin nailer but the brad has more uses and I’m glad I have one. AWESOME TOOL, AWESOME SYSTEM.

Customer review from milwaukeetool.com
Like all that you have read: Light, Powerful, Easy. I adjusted the depth and it was easy and consistent.
HINT: on the right side of the nailer are the other two "red rubber scratch avoiders". Please see the picture. I honestly expected to find them in a plastic bag included with the nailer. I was very, very pleasantly surprised to find them conveniently stored on the nailer, but have never seen this documented in any thing I've read and the pictures of the nailer that I have seen are always of the left side of the nailer.
I would buy again.

Brad nailer power minus the cords
August 16, 2020
Customer review from milwaukeetool.com
I just started some woodworking projects and needed a decent nailer to finish out my projects. I considered the air compressor type setup but didn’t want a bunch of wires and hoses running through my fairly small garage/shop. Since I was already in the Milwaukee line I decided to pick the 18 gauge nailer. Even though it was pricey, I don’t regret the purchase. Prior to purchasing, I was picking up small screws to finish my projects. That was both time consuming and over time not cost effective. This nailer has all the power you need to sink Brad nails to finish your projects. It only does it save me time, but money from having to buy packs of small screws every so often. The sink depth works great and made my last nightstand project go quickly and smoothly. I highly recommend Milwaukee. The only caveat is that it is bulky. Attempting to get into small spaces with it is difficult to get the right angle. For new projects it’s an A+. For already existing furniture work, you might struggle to get it into tight spaces.
Awesome little brad nailer!
