The brad nailer will definitely do the trick and is more versatile for more detailed projects should you ever need to do anything like that. The finish nailer is a 15 gauge nailer and will hang doors, crown, or just about any piece of wood that isn't framing.

It's great that you seem willing to come to some meeting of the minds. Just make sure to work out a contingency for what to do if the first one sent arrives fashionably late after this backup plan goes into effect.
And, Phobia, a little advice on the USPS, to be taken or discarded as you choose. Any time you mail something of real value through them, always get insurance for replacement cost, as well as getting tracking and either delivery confirmation or return receipt. With the way the post office loses mail, it's the only way to go.
And never send anything of the "priceless" sort through USPS. You might just as well break it or lose it yourself, and save the hassle.
