Nope....what's the matter?  Mall all outa nailers?

No really, what flavor were you looking for?  Everything I have seen and  
read about the Grex line is that everyone likes them a lot. I also think  
that they are at the high end of the pricing spectrum.  A while back I was  
looking for a pin nailer and would have liked the Grex but they were a bit  
expensive. I ended up with the house brand at Menards and the thing hasn't  
missed a beat, but I am not using all day, everyday. It has come in handy  
for a lot of stuff and I use it quit often, and hasn't failed or jammed  
yet.

I have a Porter Cable pin nailer, a Milwaukee pin nailer and narrow crown  
stapler, and when we were doing some heavier stuff I bought a Freeman set  
with a construction nailer and finish nailer, and those have all worked  
fine.

I think the Grex line of air tool is kinda like the Festool brand of power  
tools...they work great but you pay a premium for them.

I don't know if any of this helped or if it was just me rambling......
