That's good to hear, hopefully my 5hp 30 gallon tank can keep up to it.

There are some of the Craftsman Pro guns that are rebadged IR guns. You just need to know what you are looking at.

My gun is an IR composite that is labeled Craftsman Pro. They were side by side on the shelf at Sears, but the Craftsman was on sale and $40 cheaper.

I'm going to see how well the IR 2100G is first, I might upgrade to a Ti later. If the 2100G is good enough for Jeff I'm sure it'll be fine for me. :6

i fell in love with this tool when it removed a Honda crank pulley bolt with NO pistons or rods in the motor. if the Ti cant get it loose it probly wasnt ment to come off... ;)

how loud is that?

I have this:

And it has yet to fail me. Sometimes I snap bolts off for fun. It is deafening though. I'm looking into buying a 3/8" pneumatic impact. My 3/8" electric impact doesn't have enough power or stamina to last all day, and the 1/2" is overkilll 98% of the time. If only they made TQ sticks in 3/8" this would be in my tool box
