I've got a Senco 23 gauge pin nailer - older model that I think shoots up to 1.5" pin, Porter Cable Brad nailer 18 gauge, Porter Cable finish nailer 18 gauge - max is 2.5" I think, Senco Framing nailer, Hitachi siding nailer and a Ridgid roofing nailer. They all have their uses.

I've done quite a few homeowner DIY projects - enclosed 2 decks as screened in porches - turning $1500 of materials and about $500 in new tool purchases into $20k screened porches as an example. The Hitachi siding nailer was bought when I installed about 400 pieces of Nichiha (Hardiplank type) siding.

I like the pin nailer when I assemble jigs for shop use. A little bit of glue and a couple of shots with it and the jig is assembled with no clamps and is ready to use in 10 or 15 minutes.
