I am looking to buy an airless finishing nail gun. My choices are the Paslode system which runs on feul cells, and the Senco system which runs on batteries similar to cordless drills. Both are basically even in price, any suggestions?

i,ve had the paslode finish & framer for 2 years, both need to be cleaned on a regular basis or they stop working. it does'nt thake to long to clean, just more of a hassel to find the time. But for small jobs you can't beat them.
All I can say is....DONT BUY THE SENCO battery powered gun...I have had to return Mine 3 times..followed all directions to a "T" and had problems from day 1...misifres..no fires....battery runs and nothing happens...have gotten 2 new ones from My returns and they too have misfired and caused Me headaches...I even wrote to Senco explaining the frustration its caused..I am normally very happy with Senco"s Products but this is the pits....be wary..maybe have the tool dealer test it and be sure its prepped so when you have to bring it back you wont get hassled....just My 2 cents worth...

IMHO, way, way too many parts and crap to go wrong.

So now we know...

sounds like the senco is the new bammer, what a boat anchor.
