How would I attach Chair rail and or crown moulding to a drywall wall that has metal studs.

I've been told I could use a 2" brad in a nail gun and toenail them in. Any ideas?
Thanks

You could use construction adhesive then drive two finish nails in at a criss-cross to hold until adhesive dries. Or you could use a self drilling finish screw which you should be able to find at a big box store or any handware.
