This guy.

This stapler shoots 1/2” to 1 1/2” narrow crown staples.

Have you ever had to remove a freakin’ narrow crown staple. It is not coming out. Staples resist racking.

I use this for reinforcing cabinets and attaching their backs. Very strong.

Also it is awesome for building lattice. Brads and finish nails will pull out. Staples hold strong. (Use galvanized for outdoor.)

I would definitely buy another P.C. gun. No jams. No problemo.

4 stars because how exciting should a staple gun be?

Price: Around 90 U.S. from Amazon.

Thanks, John. A stapler is my next pneumatic purchase – I’ll have to give this one a look.

Thanks Giz, I’ve been thinking about one of these and wondered how good they were. You have the Harbor Freight models Karson and like them? That will be the cheapest way to go for me – so I’m on my way to HF on Monday. Thanks guys.

I have the same gun and love it. I bought it for attaching cabinet backs in my kitchen (and other projects) and now find it and my PC BN200A to be the lightest and most reliable guns I’ve ever owned.

I’ve never had a misfire or jam with this stapler and it’s super easy to adjust and clear (not that I’ve needed to clear it). I bought it to replace a HF stapler when I found the NS150A on sale and had a pile of stapling to get through.

Highly recommended if you need a reliable stapler that will last.

I kind of want a pin nailer too. I am interested in that bn200a. Been watching Norm build kitchen cabs this season using it for moldings.

I have an electric stapler (Metabo) similar to yours Gizmo. It can be used as a brad gun as well. Very useful tool.

I have one and love it. I have already run a couple hundred staple thru it and it is only a month old.
