Attention fellow Ryobi fans: I Spotted a different nailer in a Ryobi/Home depot (Canada) commercial. It looks larger than the Airstrike brad nailer or narrow crown stapler. Could it be a 14ga brad nailer or framing nailer? I wonder if its a prototype or if its even going to be available here in the states. Ryobi has been knocking it out of the park with these things!

Hmmmmm…maybe a framing nailer??
It looks more like a 16 gauge trim nailer to me right now its just a brad nailer and stapler. It just doesn’t look big enough in the picture and video to be a framing nailer.
Looks nice, ryobi has been stepping it up lately
Hey Javier, do you have the Airstrike nailer?
I’ve got the nailer, sooner or later I want to get the stapler. And…if that’s a framing nailer I definitely want that

Nice. I’ve got both and if you like the nailer, youll love the stapler. Its just as awesome. As far as the new nailer goes, Im down for it whether its a framing nailer or heavier gage finish nailer. If it says “airstrike”, Im all in!
Looks like someone posted on FB that they spotted it in a Ryobi Catalog. Looks like its a 16 gauge straight finish nailer. P325
Here is a link to the manual
pretty sure the clip holder/magazine would be angled if it was a framer.
I know this is late but no I don’t. I don’t have any ryobi power tools. It would be cool to have thoughChrisK1970 wrote:

I had a chance to shoot a few nails using this new trim nailer at a local Home Depot this past weekend. The Ryobi sales rep for my area (North Carolina) was there & had it setup along with a new 18V SDS hammer drill that’s coming out. The nailer was smooth & felt good in my hand, I’m definitely going to be picking up one. The model in post #8, P325, looks right from the manual linked there.
The hammer drill was very fast & felt good as well. He had a cinder block setup & had an older 18V hammer drill there, & the new SDS felt like it was about twice as fast.
I’m way into this, hoping they make a framing gun.
Ryobi has had a SDS drill out for awhile now but you could only buy it online. Is it new or is Home Depot going to carry it in stores now? I’m not doubting you just curious as this would be a newer market for Ryobi.

He said the SDS would likely be online only, but that some of the bigger stores that have a whole isle setup for Ryobi stuff might carry them in those stores. We don’t have any of those stores here in this area, but I’d like to check one out to see what they do & don’t stock as compared to “normal” stores.
Airstrike! Let’s do this!
Looks like its gonna be out soon. http://www.homedepot.com/p/Ryobi-16-Gauge-Cordless-Finish-Nailer-P325/204667878?keyword=p325 $199
Wow, that’s a little bit higher than I thought it’d be…
Owwwww. Sounds like Ryobi might be stepping up to money plate 🙁
You can get the 18ga with one lithium battery and charger, recond, for 145. That’s more palatable.
HD is showing 3 of these nailers available in my local store.
Haha, that’s weird it shows in stock at my local stores but not online. Usually its the opposite with most tool releases that its available online before the stores. I will say that none of the M12 fuel products are stocked except the impact driver.
Shows 3 in stock at my local store. Wonder if the wife will let me get a Father’s Day present…
The only thing is I wish it was an Angled nailer. The other thing I don’t like is it looks a lot bigger than the other airstrike nailers that’s what I liked about them was how small they are.
Well I FINALLY bought the 18ga. Airstrike. I bought it from Tyler Tool and should have it sometime next week. I have several different things I want to review and I have a great little project to run it through. I can’t wait for the 16ga and I’ll get the crown stapler too.
Chris knowing that THD has exclusive rights to Ryobi products, may I ask you what you paid? I am assuming that had to charge some type of markup.
I paid $139 for the kit. Reconditioned. CPO is an authorized Ryobi dealer as it relates to reconditioned tools. I ended up actually paying $116.61 because I had $23 in my paypal account. The tool and battery and charger have a one year warranty.
The Ryobi 16 gauge Finish Nailer is now available for sale at The Home Depot. I believe it just went on sale today. You can’t order it online but you can pick it up in store now!
Did they make a framing nailer yet?
Not yet.
Anybody hear if they are gonna make a framer? Thank you
It’s possible Nr77 but we haven’t heard anything from Ryobi to confirm that possibility. I know plenty of people that wouldn’t mind a cordless framer from Ryobi though 🙂
I know right! Ha thank u!
I’d say we can count on a framer 😉
A good and affordable framer would sell like wildfire for Ryobi.
I’m still wondering why TTI has Ryobi working on this tech. It would seem more in line with the Milwaukee brand….Nothing but heavy duty etc. Ryobi has stepped up their game recently, but how many regular homeowners are trimming out their houses and will spend the money on a bare tool.
TTI might be playing a dangerous game, Milwaukee supporters having to buy Ryobi tools and batteries.
I wonder how much tech sharing the TTI tool companies have?
Well TTI also has to play along with Home Depot too they have to be TTI’s biggest customer. If Home Depot wants a certain tool sold by Ryobi it probably goes to that brand. We might see some brushless nailers make it over to Milwaukee I hope we might see something at this years Milwaukee new product event.

That will pale in comparison to the butt-spanking they’ll do when they start making brushless stuff.
Their compressor and nailer combo looks awesome! And was a really good deal for Christmas.
