This angle finish nailer is one of seven new heavy-duty air-powered nailers from the venerable Milwaukee, and the whole series is another testament to the red label's unflagging quality.

Our first impression was how incredibly light this nailer is, and its compactness makes it a cinch to tote and use, especially in awkward positions and at the tail end of a long day of trim or floor installation. Still, it's a heavyweight in the power department, effortlessly driving 2-1/2" 15-gauge nails and, best of all, its reload indicator even alerts you when your magazine's nearly empty, preventing wasted firings. Loading more fasteners takes a couple of seconds at most, and that means more money in your pocket. Another big tip of the hat to Milwaukee for incorporating both sequential and bump firing modes, accessible just by turning a knob, so when speed is a need, you're ready to go, but precision is at your fingertips too. We like the quality built into this tool, from the magnesium housing and easily adjustable air deflector and muffler all the way down to small details like the sturdy belt hook. The removable non-marring nosepiece won't deface your work surface, and there's even a self-cleaning air filter in the tool handle, keeping dust and dirt out of the tool's workings - and that means longer tool life. In hand, this nailer feels great: light, comfortable, agile, beautifully balanced, and dare we say, fun to use. Tool-free depth adjustment is on-the-mark reliable, fast and easy. And should the nails jam, clearing is a snap with the tool-free jam release. Remodelers, contractors, cabinetmakers and the smart do-it-yourselfer will love this nailer.--Kris Jensen-Van Heste

5 out of 5 stars Another Quality Milwaukee Tool   June 22, 2008
J. Conover (San Antonio)
This review is for the Milwaukee 7140-21 15 gauge Angled Finish Nailer.

The package contents are: a plastic case, the 7140-21 nailer, a bottle of air tool oil(appears to be about 2 ounces), a pair of safety glasses, two allen wrenches (4mm and 5mm), a box of 1,000 2" 15 gauge bright finish nails, a warranty card, and the instruction manual.

**This item does not come with a required 3/8" male air hose coupler, so make sure you pick one up. Or if you are like me pick up a 3/8" to 1/4" coupler adapter, as I only have a 1/4" air hose setup.**

The Plastic Case:

The case is a very nice heavy duty plastic carrying case which holds all of the contents with a perfect fit and keeps closed tightly with two heavy duty metal locking hinges. It also has a built in plastic handle to easily carry the case and contents around.

The Nail Gun:

The 7140-21 has a great quality feel to it, like most Milwaukee tools do. It is also very light at only 4.2 pounds. It is made up of magnesium (body), plastic (nail magazine), rubber (grips), and steel (nail feeder and barrel). This nailer shoots 1" to 2.5" 15 gauge nails with a 34 degree collation angle as per manufacturers specifications. It also carries 106 nails in the magazine so you can shoot nails for a long time before adding more. There are some other nice features built into this nailer. The first is a simple tool less nail depth adjustment knob to quickly change the depth of the nail drive. Another feature is a 2 way switch which can: change the trigger into either single sequential actuation mode or into contact actuation mode. This means you can either shoot one nail at a time by pressing the trigger when the workpiece contact is depressed(single sequential actuation) or hold the trigger down and every time you depress the workpiece contact a nail is fired(contact actuation). Another feature is a swivel thick plastic belt clip to hang the nail gun on your belt or pant pocket or whatever when it is not in use. The nail gun also has a nice exhaust feature in which the exhaust cover can turn 360 degrees so you don't have to have compressed air blown in your face. Finally the nailer has a great designed non-marring pad which goes on the workpiece contact and even has an extra one stored on the magazine in case you lose the one that is on the tool.

The Bottle of Oil:

2 ounces of your basic bottle of air tool oil. More than enough for a small job. Remember to oil your tool several drops before and after every use and it will extend the life of your air tool.

The Safety Glasses:

A clear pair of safety glasses, but I prefer my Ztek clear tinted safety glasses though for all my work.

The Allen Wrenches:

Your basic 4mm and 5mm allen wrenches. Use them to tighten the screws that hold the tool together if they become loose or you can take the tool apart if you need to work on the tool. They are easy to replace though if lost.

The Nails:

1,000 15 gauge 2" bright finish nails. Cover them up or they will rust.

The Warranty Card:

Its just a warranty card and registration to become a member of the Heavy Duty Club (Whoopdie Doo!!!). Send it in if you want the warranty or to become a Heavy Duty Club member. I never do though.

The Instruction Manual:

The most important thing to do is read this before you start using your tool.

Conclusion:

I bought this nailer to install some 3/4" ponderosa pine craftsman style trim I had made for a big project I was working on. I figured the 15 gauge would hold it better than 16 gauge, plus the nailer was on sale when I bought it and I've never had a Milwaukee tool that wasn't first rate quality. This nailer is no exception. This nailer performed absolutely flawlessly for me. It did not mar the wood at all in ponderosa pine(an extremely soft wood). It countersunk all the nails I shot with it unless I hit a drywall screw or a nail in the framing(only happened twice). The nailer just feels like a quality tool when you use it and if something were to happen to it I would definitely purchase another one.

My only beef with it could be that it has a 3/8" NPT air inlet instead of a more common 1/4" one. Other than that I would highly recommend this nailer.

Received the nailer for what I thought was a fair price. Attached coupler (not provided & hard to find 3/8" MIP) and fired two nails in a piece of scrap to make certain gun was OK. Weeks later when I needed the nailer I got one nail in a piece of trim and the tool was inoperative. Customer service gave me a few ideas to try (none of which worked) and then told me to take to a factory authorized repair facility. That was over a week ago and have not heard from them. I gave it a One Star for the nice carrying case that it comes in.

The other reviews are all true. This is a fine product. Just the right combination of light weight and durability. Very pleased with this sleeper among 15 GA nailers.

After seeing small contractor return cheaper model because it jammed over and over. I decided to buy Milwaukee. Works perfect every time.


5 out of 5 stars Great Gun   May 30, 2008
"The Handyman"
The little gun that could! I have fired thousands of nails through this thing and still can't complain. Easiest depth adjustment I have seen. Most others have tiny little nuts to turn you can barely see. Hook is great when standing on a ladder or plank. The only thing I don't like is when it gets low on nails it will not fire the rest until you load more.
