Large drywall project, 5 people, inexperienced to professional. I made a joke upon arriving about finally having a good tool to use (they already had a DeWalt gun). As we worked, I found that everyone preferred the P-C gun by a wide margin, including me. It is not like the DeWalt doesn't work and the P-C does. The P-C seemed to be lighter, had better trigger control, felt better in your hand, and seemed to work better overall (fresh bits maintained in both guns so that was not a factor). No one could say that one thing was vastly superior, but everyone preferred the P-C gun. The professional had a P-C gun the next day replacing his DeWalt - the DeWalt was never picked up the 2nd day. If you decide to get the gun, you can beat Amason's price by a bunch (well over $20).

I have found the drywall driver to be very satisfactory so far. It is the second one made by Porter Cable. My initial thoughta are that the only difference between this on and my previous one is that my first driver all of the nose gear was metal and not plastic. I hope that this one stands up as well.
