Default help me choose between two impacts

i'm in the market for an air impact wrench. i'm looking at two differnt IR models right now. does anyone have comments on either of these?

1) http://www.harborfreight.com/c...46085

2) http://www.harborfreight.com/c...32433

my main concern is that #1 looks like part of the casing may be plastic of some type. i'm used to a durable all-metal case.

FEEDBACK PLEASE

thanks

my uncle has the Thunder Gun (first link) and it works EXCELLENT
the yellow part is a rubber bonnet that protects it when you set it down/drop it

it is very torqy and is really frast

just be shure to use air tool oil every day you use it otherwise it will not last you
but this goes with any air tool

thanks for the replies guys....the 2135 is a little more than i'd like to spend, not to mention i have a rather small air compressor so i dont want to buy a big gun and not be able to power it. thanks for the clarification on the case material - i think i'm going to go with this one
