i dont like any of the new makita stuff really, but have you guys tried the Milwaukee V28 1/2" impact? that's a beast!!
Pat has one and loves it...... so does Kat!
I need to find that pic......Ive been watching for one to pop up used.
I have a chicago pneumatic. I love it/no complaints. Does everything I need it to do. Nice tool, solidly built, made in USA. No idea what model/specs it is, other than its 1/2" drive and runs on air.

IR 1/2 drive, it's an older one rated at 525 ft/lbs, forget the model. I also have a 1/2 Mac and a 3/4 CP and neither will match the 1/2 IR for speed and power. On a side note the Mac looks surprisingly allot like another model IR. It wouldn't surprise me if that is who actually makes it.
Old school IR i've had for a long time. Needs a rebuild but works great for the home projects I do now. I used it daily when I was a tech, I don't think i'll ever get rid of it. 1/2 drive BTW. Heavy mother, all steel!!!!!
I bought an Air Cat 3/8s rachet from the Snap On guy about 2 years ago. It's really quiet and lays down around 100ftlbs. I like it and only 100 bucks. Can't beat it at that price. It made me a lot of money.

I run a 1/2" Snap On. No idea what model. It's about 10 y/o and I have used it as a hammer, a shim, chock block, and a pry bar.
It looks rough and needs a rebuild, but $125 and it will be good as new. Gotta love lifetime warranty!!

I run a 1/2 and 3/8 Snap-On cordless imapcts. I could not even tell you where my air impacts are. So easy to use, little noise, no hose to drag around, no feeling of being on a leash.
IR 231 and this Snap-on cordless to change tires at the track

I have the Mac AW5500 and i love it I was even able to back off something i put on with a Blue point 3/4 in gun. I have also used the new snap-on gun and hated it. it was weak and uncomfortable to use. I did like the Mac and IR guns since they are pretty much the same thing
Just bought the 1/2" 19.2 vt IR with the accompanying drill. Battery seems to last forever, very hand tool, especially swapping out tires at the track
bought the same gun a couple weeks ago, $20 a week off the Snap On truck! I was borrowing a buddys for the last 6mos., and decided it was good enough to buy my own. In Fallon at the NHRDA race, we changed 24 tires (three trucks twice). Also changed two flats on the trailer plus put the orig tire back on once I got home, on the same battery. I can't wait to pull the trans again. Best investment I have made in a while.
IR 231C For $150 you can beat it. Great strong impact. I am saving up for this set next. http://www.cpomakita.com/combo_kits/18_volt_combo_kits/lxt421.html
Dad just bought one of those a week or so ago, and I just used it for the first time tonight. It's pretty nice.
