I have to agree with Scott Hall, I too have an Ingersol Rand gun.
It does a great<br>
job. For the few cases when it won't break a nut loose, I don't
mind using a breaker bar to break the nut loose then use the gun to take
the nut off the bolt/stud.<br><br>
That being said the Earthquake guns from Harborfreight seem to have some

Don't forget most of these air guns have a knob that allows you to
control how much torque it puts out. So set it to one of the lower
settings, then slowly increase <br>
the setting till it breaks the nut loose. <br><br>
