blafleur's Full Review: Porter-Cable 2 1/2" Finish Nailer DA250A
Bought this to trim my new house and was looking for a reasonably priced tool that I could rely on. I dont know how it would hold up to everyday contractor use, but for the occasional heavy user or the average homeowner I dont see how you could go wrong. In my area the nails are easy to find at any Home Depot or Lowes.

The vent can be rotated as needed to keep from blowing in your face or in the saw dust. I have not had any problems with jams. An old complaint was that it double fired frequently, but they seemed to have modified the trigger to fix that. Other than being heavier than the others I picked up, what more can you ask? I got a price of $179 at Sam's and then went to Lowes and they sold it to me at 10% off that price.
