Hi I’m looking for people who have purchased the new Milwaukee Gen 2 1/2 impact gun 

Ive sent mine away twice to get fixed as I have movement (in and out) and slight movement side to side in the anvil, but everytime they’ve sent it back apparently it’s meant to be like this ? Just wondering if anyone could  let me know if theirs does the same 

thanks

I’m not real sure which 1/2″ impact you have, and I could check one of mine but I would say it’s pretty common for the anvil to have some movement.  Depending on manufacturing tolerances you may have an impact with more movement.

The gen 2.5? They fixed the intermittent trigger cutting out issue. Mine is phenomenal. It has a little bit of play at the chuck but I don’t notice it hardly ever unless I have a bent bit or a long bit. Over 6″ I mean. But at that point it’s the bent bit or the fact I’m running a bit over half a foot long that is the problem. Not the chuck or gun itself.
