impact wrench hog ring vs pin detent

Part 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c0o-v3cBgcg
Here is a hog-ring anvil or “friction ring” on the dewalt dcf899HB . It is a c-clip over a rubber o-ring on the end of the anvil.
When you push the socket on, the clip gets compressed and grips the inside of the socket. As you put more use on your impact, the ring will wear and provide less friction, you will then need to replace the clip.

The good thing about the friction ring is you can put the socket on any orientation. You do not have to line up the hole in the socket. You don’t have to think about it. The bad thing is, when the ring is new, it is quite hard on your shoulder having to struggle to pull off the socket. If you need to make many socket changes, it is slow and hard on your shoulder.

The dewalt dcf899B (or dcf899p1 kit) pin detent anvil. The pin is tapered and allows you to push the socket on and with
some effort you can pull the socket off. The advantage of this type of pin is you can put the socket on without aligning the pin, this allows you to pull the socket off with ease, using your fingers.

This is useful especially if you need to change between multiple sockets, you don’t have to struggle to pull them off.

But if you do want to lock the socket on securely, you can align the hole with the pin and it takes a bit of effort to remove. Or you could stick a screwdriver or something to push the pin down

I really like the pin on the ryobi P260, it is a little more low profile and provides just enough resistance not to lock the socket on. I’m going to remove the dewalt pin and grind it to see if I can get it like the Ryobi as I don’t need the pin to be so secure.

I think maybe the hog ring anvil may be stronger because it is not drilled in 2 places to fit the pin detent(but not sure just a guess)

I’m not sure how the pin looks on the milwaukee cordless impacts, like a 2762-22 , if it is tapered or straight. If it is straight then you would need a tool to push it down even to put on the socket. But when I look at the picture on milwaukee tool site it looks tapered.
