Brad nailers get some flack about limited holding power and that is true up
to a point. They actually do a pretty good job of holding on when you are
working with lighter weight trim and moulding, or holding items in place
while glue dries. In fact, brads can be a pain to remove if you make an
error - but they will pull throught at the head end or break. If you are
getting into heavy duty base mouldings or items where the nails could come
under stress, go for the finish nailer. Otherwise go with the brad nailer.
Brads are cheaper too.

I am in the market for an air nailer to work on a few projects. What is
the difference between a finish nailer and a brad nailer? Why would I
choose either? Sorry if this is an easy question, but I just want some
input before I go buy one.

What are some good moderly priced nailers?

Thanks for any help you can provide
Josh
