  1. I am new here. If for any reason this note doesn't fit, excuse me. I am finding my way on this forum, and hoping this fits. I bought a Surebonder staple gun to replace a gun by the same name that jammed and died while I got heavy handed trying to clear it. I just got a task needing a stapler to fasten membrane to wood, and reached for my brand new stapler. My education begins, with a lesson on just how nany versions there are for the air staplers. And my existing manual all take T50 so I was surprised(my fault). But now I have to google my day away trying to figure out what is a No. 6, duo-fast wide crown staple. Two box stores later and it is less clear yet. Even with the proper naming convention, the sites aren't straight forwards about their staple stock. Amazon my usual go to is vague too. And the delivery times are slow so beinv wrong will delay me even further. Why a 't it be absolute!y clear. Order 1,000 of XYZ staples the Length/depth I need a d done !!! But no, what is WIDE, okay how about duo-fast, no how about No. 6 Is tbat 600 series, not T 50 but T 23 No idea. Is wide = to 1/4 inch crown, 3/8 inch crown. Now what is 3/8 inch in millimeters ? The truth is I don't give a f... Simple task + simple tool should equal simple task done. But I have 't left the gate yet.So I am goj g to reture the Surebonder, not because its got no way to open a cess to unblkck jams, I was going to chance that problem(again). But because I can't afford the time to search/hunt/google for hours to find the right amunition for my gun. I can't understand how a product with SPECIFIC demands has not bothered to make it clear, what is the right staple. Wide is grsat for hot dog buns but not for sfaples. Number 6, I see that in only one place, the gun label. Is it short for series 600 ?? Arrow isn't helping with displace of T50 and T 23, no wide description anywhere. I am wrong for not expecting comp!ications and searching more before I bought the Stapler. Ojay bad me, but now I can't change the purchase and it seems I can't find the staples to make this work. And all my google searches reveal NOTHING. Not ONE bright note to help define articulate identify the product that is hidden behind the WIDE label. Really I am the first and only one to have issues findinv a box of staples. I didn't even mention gauge, 15, 16, 18. If I made a document/ vide I would specifically define the allysive wide crown in enough straight forward terms that even a nit wit like me could find with reasonable ease. So I will get rid of the surebonder, and use my mechanical stapler to hit the 1/2 inch target some multiple hundred times. And waste time/energy dojng so but less than this failed searcb has already cost me. I failed to achieve my goal and that bothers me. And worse I haven't had one hint that anyone else was unable to succeed. I don't like failing but another more hrs won't solve this, and writing to complain, will only make it hurt worse. Because I know , I will still be the only one with this problem. T50 or death I won't mess around again..Cheers...Alex
