Product Description

This straight brad nailer is one of seven new heavy-duty air-powered nailers from the venerable Milwaukee, and the whole series is another testament to the red label’s unflagging quality.

Like all of Milwaukee’s new nailers, this is incredibly light, even fully loaded, and its cool, compact size makes it a cinch to tote and use, especially in awkward positions and at the tail end of a long day of trim installation. But it’s crowded at the top of the list: Despite their light weight, these nailers are heavyweights in the power department. The 7150-21 effortlessly drives 5/8" to 2-1/8" brads and, best of all, its reload indicator even alerts you when your magazine’s nearly empty. Loading more fasteners takes a couple of seconds at most, and that means more money in your pocket. Another big tip of the hat to Milwaukee for incorporating both sequential and bump firing modes, accessible just by turning a knob, so when speed is a need, you’re ready to go, but precision is at your fingertips too. We like the quality built into this tool, from the magnesium housing and oil-free motor to the easily adjustable air deflector and muffler, as well as the convenient rafter hook for storage. The non-marring nosepiece won’t deface your work surface, and there’s even a self-cleaning air filter in the tool handle, keeping dust and dirt out of the tool’s workings – and that means longer tool life. In hand, this nailer feels great: light, comfortable, agile, beautifully balanced, and dare we say, fun to use. Tool-free depth adjustment is on-the-mark reliable, fast and easy. And should the nails jam, clearing is a snap with the tool-free jam release. Bravo, Milwaukee.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

Like other magnesium headed brad nailer's this gun produces almost no recoil. Another great feature, not publicized, is that it will not fire without nails (dry fire). The only minor problem for users of other guns is that the safety is behind the actual place the nail is fired from...but after a very short time you will be used to that. The no mar head on the safety is very good too. All in all a great gun...I ordered a second one already. [I am a finish carpenter by trade of 30+ years]

what can I say! This is the best air nailer I have ever owned! I have Senco's BEST finish nailer and it is a distant second fit, finish and feel to my Milwaukee brad nailer.
I only regret not being aware of the Milwauke line up before I purchased my Milwaukee!

5.0 out of 5 stars First and not The last Milwaukee Tool I'll buy !!!, April 10, 2007

This review is from: Milwaukee 7150-21 5/8-Inch to 2-1/8-Inch 18 Gauge Brad Nailer (Tools & Home Improvement)

First time ever using a nail gun and I was imediately impressed. Not one Jam up and smooth operation. Light and very little recoil.

I did look at the dewalt brad nailer and I also love Dewalt tools, However this tool was favored a little more than the Dewalt. Price difference between the two tools was nothing to compare almost equal.

I can tell this tool will last. One more thing to add is Milwaukee has a warrenty for three more years than Dewalt. That is a total of five years. Dewalt only two.
