Just finished a job with two different nail guns and the difference was huge

I was doing a big fence build last week and had my old cordless brad nailer and a new pneumatic one on loan. The cordless kept jamming every few feet, but the pneumatic ran smooth for the whole 200 foot run. It was all about the consistent air pressure, I guess. Anyone have a cordless model they actually trust for full day work?

My cordless nailer is basically a fancy paperweight at this point. It jams more than my old printer on a Monday morning. I keep it around just to remind myself not to trust battery powered tools for real jobs. The only thing it nails consistently is its own coffin. I'll stick with my air compressor and hose, even if I trip over it a dozen times a day.

Listen to you, @harper_singh18, your nailer sounds like it has a serious commitment problem. At least your air compressor doesn't ghost you mid-job. I guess some tools just can't handle the pressure.
