Rushed to the nearest HD. No joy. Bummer. I'd try another across town but I think I will call first. Thanks though Evadman.

Better put in a whoot for post number 500. Whoot!

the first post in this thread was my 14,500. only 14,000 to go :p

The store I got mine at had 2 more. Most stores will have a ton of these unless they were sold earlier, but if they are going on clearance, they didn't sell too well :p

Colorado Springs North (Woodmen) location had nothing, South Academy had 1 which is now in my trunk!

A couple of extra bits of info which may help when calling:

Model H2242 (was $59.97, now $39.00)
SKU 265-500

Yes, the H4103 gun alone is ~$60 on the shelf right next to this...

Thanks Evadman!!!!!!

If you have to ask, don't waste your money.

It acts like a box end wrench with someone tapping (or beating) on the end with a hammer. This vibration and torque makes most nuts and bolts come out very easily. Great for automotive work.

All over this! Thanks.

Hmmm... isn't this about the time of the year that they run their 40% off yellow tag items? Or have they quit doing this?

Basicly it is an air powered ratchet. It runs on air from an air compressor. This gun applies the same about of torque as you jumping up and down on a wrench. Basicly, you cna change a tire in about 60 seconds by yourself, easy.

Those were basicly to clear the stores of clearance merchandise in a short amount of time so that new stuff could be moved in. AFAIK most of the clearance stuff went out the doors, but it is very possible it could be a yearly event now. Even being an employee, you did not know until the night before. If you know what you are looking for in a HD store you could probably tell. Hell, just ask an employee. If they know they will tell ya. Just don't ask someone who looks like a manager :p

SKU 692-181 -- 5.5 honda powered gas compressor. cool dual tank design by Ingersol Rand Contractor series. $235, down from $799. Superduper hot deal if you can find one! YMMV Though. I got one in my Garage :)

Small comressors, I got no idea. I tend to buy big things :p

I believe the air creates a smacking or impact like effect to produce the torque, like an impact driver, when you smack it with a hammer to produce torque.

If anyone is in the Salinas area, there are 3 left.

yes, an impact wrench is different than an air ratchet. An air rachet is included in the kit however.
Edit. Dang. Had to edit every post today for typos. Mavis?
