I think Austin's carries it, FWIW. I think this wold be a great gun for trim and fascia. Love that store! I think I'll check it out. |

I've been eyeing this gun for a while! I still need a small compressor for other guns but I find myself using the 18ga predominantly. I decided to go for it today! I ran some test fires and it shot great every time! I'll be putting it to real world use this week so I'll know better but being hose free is amazing! Thanks to this thread for pushing me over the edge!  |

These Grex do not look to be available in Australia. Maybe the gas cylinders do not ship?

Size, batteries, all metal beyond the plastic outer shroud, fully serviceable just like a regular nail gun. Low odour fuel cells is a plus as well

Cobbers, these Guys are killing me,..
I have not seen the use for these often, but need to bang up some cabinets and pin things together before/during glueing and screwing.
What does one use in Australia for a pin nailer?
I have a compressor, but prefer not to drag it out.
The Grex does not look like is has an entry visa for here???
Or are they not that useful to use as a third hand to hold stuff together when assembling cabinets?

I always install fascia before decking. So I'm walking across joists. I tack the fascia with an 18g and have my low man back screw it later. Up high on joists it's nice to lose the hose.
Been playing with the nailer for a while tonight. It brings a big grin every time I shoot it!

Ok I am hijacking... The 650 LX looks like what I want for ply and MDF. 23-ga, and no fuel cells just a pneumatic air-hose, so no worries on a travel visa to to the Au.
Do 1-3/8 brads work?
Or is there an optimum length for 16-mm (5/8") MDF?
[Back to your regular programming]

These are cute, anyone tired one?  ( Is the 1850 really as quiet as in the video? ) |

I really want this nail gun, seems like a great tool, I hear the only down side is with jams seeing as it's not tool less but that's not to big of a deal to me.

Used my new gun the last few days. I'm happy to report I have no regrets. Great gun! I noticed you can't shoot as fast as a pneumatic, but fast enough. It's lightweight enough to carry on my bags without dragging them down, as you can see in the picture.  |
