Default Screwgun Recommendation

If you really like the Skil brand gun you have, try here for the
part:

I have an old, but great condition Skil Screwgun model 6906.
Great except that the bit holder no longer holds the bit in
place. Unfortunately Skil no longer makes any screwgun and
needless to say they do not have any parts available for this
screwgun. I am therefore looking for a new gun. Harbor
Freight's gun looks exactly like the DeWalt screwgun and at
$39.99 is tempting to get with the 2 year extended warranty (I
overheard some pros talking about buying the HF roofing guns and
extended warranty and getting new ones all the time on HF). My
other tempting option is a Ridgid R6000 from Home Depot because
when I register it I can get a lifetime warranty (VERY tempting).
Anybody have any experience with either of these? Thanks.
