The cord is quite long. sinks #6 drywall screws without noticing.
On the other hand it put 1 5/8 rock-on screws through durarock no problem. I tried driving some 3" deckmates just to see how the gun did, and while it can sink 'em no problem there is some slowdown.
I bought this gun refurbished (reconditioned). I am not sure why the nose is so darn long, except that maybe it helps keep a decent angle in the corners.
I'd give it a 5 if mine came with short and long nosepieces. It seems well made and it works well.
It is fast as can be (haven't tried the 6k rpm versions, but this sinks 1 1/4 dwall screws almost instantly).
From the beginning it was a lemon. I wouldn't even give this item a star it is a zero. I hope no one else will buy this screwdrive and get "screwed" like I did. When the load was applied to the screw, some sort of auto release kicked in and wouldn't let it screw in the screw. I gave it as a gift to my son who was able to put 2 screws into the wall and it quit. I took it to a machinist to see if it could be fixed and altho he got it to run again, it only screwed 2 screws and quit.
