I am planning to buy an auto-feed screw gun for mostly drywall work. Our local tool crib sells the Hitachi Super-Drive and the Dewalt Quik-Drive. The Dewalt is a little more money but looks like a better made tool. Has anyone used either of these tools and what do you think of them?? Please advise as I wiil have to do something this weekend! Thanks!!

I just finished running 10,000 screws through a Dewalt and I bet less than a dozen missfired. Each box of screws came with a new bit and I changed with each box. The biggest problem I ever had with the gun was seating the new bits without stabbing my finger tip. A small plastic mallet did a good job and didn't seem to hurt anything.
Check out the Hilti... Nice gun.. or should I say gun and autofeed attachment.
