Im convinced! the el cheapo chinese nailers do the job - you just have to tighten everything up before you start (thye tend to leak a little air first time - just tighten up the allen keys). mines a couple of years old, has fired >10,000 nails, been dropped from great heights and been oiled every few hundred nails - and it still works! (different brand but looks idetical to that one apart from colour)
