Default Brad nailer for hanging drywall?

Get one of those nifty bits that helps set the screw to proper depth.
Less than a buck.

Thanks for the informative, serious reply. In the meantime, I looked up
Senco nailers and see they sell a dedicated drywall screw gun. That gave me
a clue that drywall should be treated special.

Screws and my trusty dewalt drill will do fine for the amount of drywall I
have to hang.

Can a brad nailer be used successfully to hang drywall?


I would avoid using any kind of nails for drywall, at least in my
house. Use drywall screws and avoid those ugly nail pops years later.
Brads should not be used at all for drywall.
