Rating  - Once Quality, Now Junk!
The Arrow T50 staple gun used to be a simple, dependable tool. I had one for 20 years and never had a problem with it. My staple gun disappeared from the job site, now I know why -- the old ones worked, the new ones are junk! After 2 hours of frustration trying to tack insulation, jams every few minutes with Arrow brand staples -- I took a hammer to it! Save your money and buy something else!
Rating - jams and breaks
O.k, all I was trying to do was build a "cat condo"! I simply needed a staple gun to staple the carpet to some wood. I remember my dad had a staple gun that worked great, and would shoot staples across the garage. So I went to Home Depot to get a staple gun. I found the Arrow T50 that looked pretty familiar, so I bought it along with two boxes of different size staples. I took it home, loaded some staples in, and could not get it to work. I tried to hold it at different angles, and tried everything I could think of. It finally started shooting staples, but only about 1 out of five would work...So back to Home Depot I went. I returned the thing along with the remaining staples, and hoped to find a "better" one. There were not really many other options, so I thought I would try another one! So I bought another T50 along with more staples. I took it home and again immediately had problems. I loaded the staples and it didn't work! I tried to remove the staples, but they seemed stuck. I tried to use it again, and eventually got some stapling done. I tried to load the second round of staples, and it jammed completely, and would not work at all. I just don't know why this thing won't work. I have the correct T50 staples of different lengths, and none seem to work correctly. I believe this is similar to the one I remember from long ago, except I remember the staples being wider. I don't know how Arrow could have made these things this long, and yet they work so badly. Did they change the design? Did they cheapen the parts? So I have to go back to the Depot again for the return. Maybe I'll see what Lowe's has. Stanley also makes a stapler, so maybe I'll give Sears a try too.
Rating - Jams about every 4th staple!
as someone else said, perhaps it is only the particular one I was unfortunate enough to buy, but this is maddening to use this tool. I'm at the Amazon website right now looking for a replacement.
Rating  - No Staples
Would have been nice if this product came with staples or there was an option to buy staples. Guess I'm off to Home Depot with heavy staple gun in tow trying to find some staples. Don't know how it works because there aren't any staples..LOL
Rating  - good product
this gun helped me a lot when i needed to put the wire from my tv in the first floor to my computer in the second floor, i put a lot of wire and it worked good, the only con could be as a woman you will probably get tired, you have to press really hard.
