I'm looking for a new gun.
I'm sick of having mis-feeds and mis-fires, I'm really wanting reliability
Not too bothered about capacity, I can always reload. It'd be good if it took commonly available ammo though.
My gun at the moment is a bit light and flimsy, I think I'd like something heavier, more robust.
Sometimes I feel a little under-powered. I reckon I'd like a bit more penetration.
I'm not too bothered about the cost. I think I'll buy once, and buy right.
Suggestions?
Oh it has to be a staple-gun. I forgot that bit
Nothing wrong with a Tikka
Stockade is what us fencers use . . .
Depending on your intended use I prefer hammer tackers iv had terrible luck with the normal staple guns
6.6x55 Swede, Tikka
Boring, reliable, hit what you point it at, nothing flash.
You have to use them free recoil with the 13/8.Quote:

Targets mainly, I doubt I'll hunt with it muchQuote:

The big thing is not to "lose yer lolly" when they do malfunction and throw them. For some reason they seldom work the same again. Guess how I know . . .
I have about 60 of the rapid at work
Ammo comes in 5000x packets
13/8 a lil testy on high power but the 13/6 no probs all day
What are you using it for? If you already have battery tools maybe a battery one if you are using a lot of staples.
Oops, didn't get the stapler bit.Quote:

Hammer tackers are vastly better but are made to be putting something flexible onto something solid ie building paper onto a house and need a decent thwack to activate
For targets the recommended unit would be fine
If stapling to something like ply wood a hammer tackers a good optionQuote:

I'm a bit of a dinosaur and would go with a single shot stapler

The Stanley aluminium staple gun has been reliable to the point I have two, yet to be heaved across the building site

Accuracy International AXSR is the way to go.
I bought a dewalt one a while back. Seems to go well.
