Depending what you will use this too for, brad and finish guns are needed for different applications. Just to have one gun, I buy a brad gun capable of shooting 1" to 2" nails.

This, but I often use a pin nailer, with glue, for small prefinished cabinet trim. You don't see the pins, no filler.
I really like this gun, all time favorite. No oil necessary.
