Should you buy a Ryobi Air Strike Brad Nailer?
YES! 100%
Ryobi really messed up when they made their 18v cordless brad nailers. I mean that in the best possible way. Ryobi has always been known as the “Budget Brand” or “Weekend Warrior” tool line, and while I agree with those funny nicknames, what we have here is something totally different from Ryobi!
If you are short on time or just lack general patience like myself. The quick answer is YES! For 90% of the population Ryobi hit a homerun and produced some very high quality 18v cordless brad and pin nailers. I have used all 3 versions 23g-16g and they have all performed quite well. Especially the 23g and 18g brad nailer. I do cover some weak points with the 16g model in the video and for the price I would still purchase this brad nailer.

I bought this nail gun as we were planning to renew all the fencing in our back garden. As this involved 19 double slatted fence panels, 10 of which needed to be cut down in size, we knew there would be a need for a great kzfaq.infoUgkxHQsUrwNr5GQrnx9V4xDdUr56qxwuiBHt deal of re-stapling the wooden slats to the wooden framework. Each alteration required the re-stapling of 62 wooden slats with double staples. Prior to starting the work we ordered sufficient additional staples as per the instructions with the gun.The gun performed fantastically throughout the entire project with no jams of misfires. The adjustable power was excellent allowing the staples to be fired into the 8mm slats to the correct depth. For the price paid this was a bargain and it proved itself to be so reliable and versatile making an arduous task much quicker and professional. I cannot recommend this product highly enough and it will be used on many other projects in the future.

My 16 gauge finish nailer from Ryobi took a poop on me today, it is one year old. I have used it medium to a mild heavy usage. I have two tool platforms, I use Milwaukee and ryobi. I wonder if I should buy another 16 gauge Ryobi finish nailer and expect it to last a year. Or do I purchase the Milwaukee finish nailer with the expectation of it lasting longer?

I feel you. Ryobi is not my first choice for tools. With that being said, when doing my research all the other brands didn't have any better reviews for a brad nailer. So I went with the Ryobi. Turns out it's one of the best tools Ryobi has ever made. I use them daily. I still stand by, that I don't care for most of their products. Luckily I work hard and can afford a little better quality. Just because people say they like other brands doesn't mean people can't buy and make Ryobi work for them. Thanks for the comment!

I'm a carpenter. I do lots of trim. I have the p320, bought it about a year ago. I use it to do all trim work. Just trimmed out 40 apartments with crown, picture, base and quarter round. It's been great. It's less than half the price of the expensive battery nailers.i had used Ryobi drills and impacts for 5 years, no issues. I saw no need to change. I see expensive brands failing as often as my Ryobi. I did have an issue with the 16 gauge nailer. Returned it. My 18 gauge really does everything I need it to anyway

Hi, I have a P320 and bought it new years ago but since I didnt use it for a long time it is firing very intermittently now. If I adjust the +- on the back to zero it will sometimes fire again for a few nails and then dry fire or not fire at all. My question is , without tearing the tool apart, do you ever oil it because I think it might be my problem and if you do, how do you personally do it?

Hard to say. I don't have much input as I rarely use my 16g. My 23 and 18 still rocking. I did upgrade to the brushless version of the 18g - I switch between 2 sizes of brads often enough I needed 2 dedicated guns. I wasn't expecting much, but damn that new brushless version is nice! The 16g is a beast for a cordless sytem for heavy use I would imagine. Ive had Milwaukee crap on me enough to where I won't even buy it anymore when sourcing higher quality.

@warrensmith2902 8 ай бұрын

Still have and use the18g from when it first came out. It's great for packing to a job site. With some of the original ones they didn't take a full clip and they didn't like you adding a half clip to the last 5 in the gun. Used within those limits and it never fails.

I got the 16ga finish nailer because it was the only model available in my town at the time.

had the 23 gauge pinner, was expensive as a bare tool. Around 200 staples, it jammed. When I took it apart to figure out the problem, I lost some small part and have never been able to find it. The parts list only has big modular parts that aren't cheap (no separate listing for the correct small parts). So I'm on the bubble of just throwing the whole thing away and the $100 bare tool cost that it was. It was convenient for a very short time, but I sold a grex pinner thinking the convenience of the ryobi would be better despite it's fatness and lower quality. wish I'd have kept the grex.

My advice is to buy 2nd hand big brand (dewalt, milwakie, etc) tools instead of buying new Ryobi and stick to one brand. I was attracted to Ryobi by its price and bought a lot of wireless Ryobi tools. But over time, they don't last or they don't have enough tightness for a demanding project. My brad nailer only lasted two years and stopped working. Customer service is non existence. By the time I want to switch to different brand, it's too expensive to switch since no brands share same batteries. Buy a dewalt nailer, you can repair it by yourself since all the parts are available online. My bad experience with Ryobi including brad nailer, circular saw, table saw. The drill and hammer drill are ok. Also, used market for Ryobi tools is not friendly. Most of it end up in trash can.
