I can't remember the number but I had been running one of the composite housing IR's on my service truck until the FWD/REV buttons started falling out while I was working. Unfortunately the man at the repair shop said the most common cause of this happening was that housing between the buttons cracked, and that was what had happened with mine. I changed it out with one of the multiple IR 231's from the shop.

That said I've got to second the 231 as a GREAT impact. True the Nitrocat mentioned below lists a peak torque nearly twice what the IR has, but for most fasteners you'll be using the gun for it's overkill to the extreme. Not to mention the 1/2 drive isn't designed to handle that much torque, so the life of the tool will almost surely be shortened as a result.
