    O.K. now nobody laugh. but I bought one on sale at harbor freight for $59.00 so far it works great. 2 batteries, charger & hard case. I got a 15 month warranty for $5.00 in 14 months IF it does not work as it does now, I will trade it in for another new one. this one may not last if I drop it 5 ft to the ground, but if I do not abuse it, it may last. trading left hand/right hand got old, been doing it for 13 years.

    A couple of features that the Milwaukee has that I haven't seen on any others is 1. there is a "holster" (for lack of a better word) for the hose/tip on the right hand side and 2. if you look at how where the cartridge tube is located, it is guided into place when you reinstall it after changing tubes. It NEVER cross threads. Just slide it in and screw it down, starts perfect every time. It will also do 8-9 tubes per battery charge (when new my 12v Lincoln would do 1 1/2 tubes and now does less than 1/2 a tube before the battery fails) and the Milwaukee puts out 9000 psi (IIRC)
