Default More nail gun questions

I thank those who provided me with some input about nail guns but have a few
more question.

From what I gather, there are about 4 or so types of nail guns. I assume
they are Brad nailer, Finish Nailer, Framing nailer and Stapler, or am I
off? If so, what differs with a brad nailer and a finishing nailer? Ok, I
know the nail, therefore, I suppose I should ask what size do brad nails
come in as well as finish nails, etc.

I have read a few recommendations of a 15, 16 or 18 ga nailers. Does this
mean the gun can only use that guage and nothing more or it can use up to a
15, 16 or 18 ga?

I know a few of you recommended kits. Therefore , it's obvious to assume one
gun cannot handle all nails. Would a kit with 3 guns, for example, handle
all ranges of nails. Not that I would always use all types of nails, but
it's nice to know I can.

I just hate to make a purchase and realize it's not what I am looking for. I
want to know I have the wide range of use.

Thanks again for all the help.

Happy New Years to you and yours.

Be Safe.
