Hi I’m contemplating the purchase of the Max AKHL 1050E High pressure compressor and HN75 nail gun and would be interested in hearing from anyone who has this system and whether they are satisfied with it.
I’d also like to know if anyone has heard any reports about the new Max gas Nailer.It due to be released here (Australia) in March and the Max Rep said there have been a few teething problems with it.
Cheers
Thomas.

Tomas,
Here is a link to a review of that rig. http://www.jlconline.com/cgi-bin/jlconline.storefront/435f7f8b0002e25427177f0000010576/Product/View/0406nail and here is a link to a discussion about it at JLC. A guy there just bought it, so you could PM him or email him about it too. http://forums.jlconline.com/forums/showthread.php?t=27287
We have so many guns and compressors, that I wouldn't buy it now, but if we had our stuff ripped off, I would buy it in a heartbeat. It is the best setup available. It's insane how cool it is. The compressor isn't much bigger than my HP printer and it's light. The gun feels as light as a finish gun, but bigger.
Hi Tim,
thanks for your email about the Max high pressure system.I've been trying to access information about the system for a while but was having difficulty finding out anything at all.Unfortunately in Australia the compressor,nail gun and hose costs AUS$6000.00 which equates to about US$4500.00 which I feel is just too expensive.
I'm wondering whether you can put me in touch with a tool shop that deals with Max products that I can ring because I'm seriously considering buying the system from the US.
Hope to hear from you soon.
Cheers.
