Oh really? I’ve heard people buying makita s/hand but I’m weary of doing this.
The Milwaukee seems the best option here

@musa The drill may not be up to much heavy abuse, but will be fine for DIY jobs or light work and if you use the driver for most heavy duty screws and nuts, it'll take a good chunk of the abuse.
I bought the equivalent set about 4 years ago for DIY and now have them slung in my tool bag for work for the past two years. The batteries didn't have the charge indication on them, but the drill was effectively the next model up nowadays. The batteries still last ages.
Makita have recently invested loads on their LXT lineup and technology and it's going to be about for a while, but the old vacuum cleaner makes it worth going with Makita.
Just replace the drill body if it breaks in the future.
