   Jay, I've got a Duofast electric stapler and it shoots 1/2" wide 20 ga. staples 5/16" ,3/8" and 1/2" I'm very satisfied with the gun and use it for wood as well as upholstery (also leather)

   Had an ARROW and it wouldn't work nearly as well. I buy the staples directly from Duofast 5000 in a box

      If you just have one small job, a good electric stapler will get you through. The problem with T50 staples is, even if you can manage to seat them in hardwood, they lack holding power. A pneumatic stapler that shoots 22 gauge staples will work best.

              I do upholstery projects occasionally so I needed an upholstery stapler, but I didn't want to spend the money on a PC, which is a very good one. So I   decided to try the Paslode upholstery stapler from Home Depot for $69.00can., and it works like a dream, I couldn't be happier, and theres a lot less swearing involved in upholstering.             Thumbs Up to Paslode!

                             Good Luck.                       Walker1
