Default Air / Cordless Framing Nailers

We have decided to put up another shop. 60'x40'

Looking at purchasing some framing nailers what brands, air or cordless do you all recommend?

Thus far been an Eastwing swinger when building anything figured I'd give the nailers a go.

Had a few different models at work, they were constantly in need of repair.

Put tens of thousands of nails through my DeWalt 20v. Good tool. Thousand nails on a charge.

If you want speed a Paslode air isn’t really going to be beat, but those airless are nice for convenience but I find them slower and more fragile. I’ve dropped many Paslode airs off the side of a roofline or wall and I pull it up by the line and it fires up right away. No way I’d want to do that with an airless.

Haven't tried the Hitachi hoseless yet but looks awesome from YouTube . Still prefer hose and paslode 350 . Can't beat the reliability.
