My brand new 18 gauge brad nailer jammed solid on the last piece of crown molding for a kitchen in Tempe yesterday.
Had to finish the job with my old manual nail set and a hammer, which added an extra hour and a ton of frustration, so what's the most reliable pneumatic nailer you guys actually trust for finish work?

Buddy of mine had the same thing happen with a Bostitch on site last month.

Ugh that's the worst, especially on the last piece lol. My old Hitachi has never let me down, even when I probably don't deserve its loyalty.

Man, that last piece failure is a special kind of frustration. You're right to praise that Hitachi, @riverperry. My old Makita drill has the same kind of stubborn loyalty, just keeps going no matter how much I abuse it. Some tools just earn that lifetime pass.
