I bought this for home projects and art projects. I really love how versatile this model is because it can use a wide range of sizes in staples. The only drawback is it takes a lot of hand strength to work it, at least at first. I'm hoping the action will become easier with use. Other than that, a very solid tool, at a great price point.
this product has always been a very reliable staple gun, i remember as a child my dad always had the T-50 and they last forever, this tool is and always has been a top of the line tool and is probably been the companys biggest seller for decades,
Pros: insulation
I would recommend this to a friend!

Dear Greg,
I appreciate the review and glad our tool has been a part of your family for generations.
I purchased this stapler for use in stapling cardboard to wood for pistol targets, after a previous product failed completely in the middle of a training class.
The T50 is HEAVY DUTY, it is built like a tank, and I have not had any jamming or misfire issues to date.
The gun loads easily, and the grip feels good in my larger hands.
The gun does take a fair amount of effort to fire, more than some of the other lesser quality guns, but at the same time the coil-spring firing mechanism drives the staples deep to hold whatever you need held.
It's nice to see a company that is still making quality products in the USA!
I bought this product in a pinch after tree limbs crashed through my fence. I needed something that would hold the chicken wire in place until I could get the fence fixed. This did the job! It was quick and effortless. I can't wait to find another job for this staple gun!
