There are many good Pneumatic nail guns, your first choice is to what size of nail you wish to use, and find the gun that offers the best range in the sizes you want to use.

Then are you doing this as a job or as a hobby,

I am looking into purchasing a nail gun and compressor to use for attaching molding and building furniture (toy chest, coat rack, etc.) Does anyone have a suggestion of what type of nail gun I should get for these types of jobs? Thanks

Hi. I use a Porter Cable Brad Nailer to do those things... I can use 1" to 2" brads in it and for building furniture pieces and affixing baseboards and framing, it works great and is fairly inexpensive.

Check the local borg for the a Porter Cable combo. It comes with a pancake compressor and depending on the package one to three guns. If you plan to use the compressor for anything else, like painting you will want a bigger one.

Look for the combo kits like KC said. I personally use Stanley guns and compressors on my jobs. Reason, got a deal on them.

It Trim Houses Every Day And The Best Ive Used Has Been Porta Cable, Ive Tried Dewalt And Though I Love There Tools The Guns Just Don't Hold Up.
Paslode And Bostitch Are Also Good, Nichols Trim

How did we get from nail guns to charcoal smokers? Start new post under another topic.
