I'm in the market for a nail gun but am uneducated to the nail gun world.
Therefore, will someone educate me on what to look for in an all around
general purpose nail gun?

I do trimming (baseboards, door trim, etc) as well as minor constructive
type building (door frames, cabinets, etc) , if that helps. Not as
employment but for my own home and woodworking hobbies.

Thank you

I bought a three gun set (18ga. brad, 16ga. finish nailer, 18ga.
narrow crown stapler) with a 6gal. pancake compressor from the BORG
a while back for $300 or some such (I've heard of better deals).
I'm quite pleased with them.

Shop around for this kit as a compatible, get the most guns you can,
Kits differ, I have this (one like) and it has already paid for itself
a couple of times over.

Well there are about 4 categories of guns as far as size goes. It sounds
like you are looking for a finish nail gun.
Something that is nice to have is a gun that does not require daily oiling.
I have had a Senco finish nailer for almost 18 years and am still very happy
with it. The Senco is uses no oil and is a bit pricey but will last you a
very long time.
