Been looking around for a new finish nailer and might buy either of these 2.
Paslode IM65A http://www.screwfix.com/app/sfd/cat/pro.jsp?id=83658

OR
DEWALT DC618KB http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Dewalt-DC618K...ryZ20777QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItem

at present i am in favour of the DeWalt.

Here is my thinking

Dewalt Pros.
It is £70 cheaper than anywhere else i have seen it and is £60 cheaper than anywhere i have seen the paslode.Seems an absolute steel at the price it is listed at.
No gas cells to replace at additional cost.
No servicing needs and costs.
Can use the batteries with other 18v DeWalt Kit.

Cons.
it is quite big and is heavier at just under 4kg inc battery.
Paslode is a lot lighter at 2.3kg.

What do you guys think ?. any thoughts or opinions ?.
