Small stapler for targets

[Bayhawk21]

This is a likey stupid question but here goes.

Does anyone have recommendations for a small stapler that's effective in putting up targets even on a thick backing?

I'm trying to make my kit small and light, and would prefer not to drag around a larger heavy duty stapler.

Thanks

I use the standard Arrow. Worker’s at my work keep breaking them though, so we bought this black dewalt one Friday. Haven’t opened it yet, it it’s much lighter. Same size as the arrow, but it helps you out in the weight department

Arrow -- most others are copies or even oem with more plastic

I have just allways used a Stanley heavy duty staple gun, pretty much the same thing you find at ranges that supply them.
They really don't weight shit and take up less room than a 20 round box of 300wm ammo.

I use a Stanley never had a problem

Stanley TR45 is what I use. Small and plenty of punch for wood backers at the range.

Thumb tacks. I carry a few dozen in a small aspirin bottle and never have to forget to refill the staples.

I carry a small all metal stapler in my range bag.

Kinda looks like this.

I try not to shoot things that need a stapler.

I do as well but sometimes it’s all you get.

Any stapler usa will prob just work fine. A trip to your local box or hardware store would prob have your best answer.

Obviously an actual gun style would be more favorable over the average slap tacker.

Shoot the other guy's target and you won't need a stapler, or targets...

Of course that never happens ?

I will commission and build an ultralight titanium compact tacticool stapler in multiple color options. PVD black or the latest and coolest cerakote colors end user options available.
Who's in it to win it for a $1000 staple gun ?
First 100 buyers get a free kydex ambidextrous quick draw holster so you will be first on the line sending staples down range. ??

I use this little guy. Its cheap, compact, and light. I havent seen anything that I cant staple with it

.Little staple gun

Jerry would be dangerous firing q-tips from a plastic straw.

Sand the Dewalt label off of it and respray with a Proof label to match your barrel.

I use this stapler. MUCH lighter and less than half the size of the big metal ones you usually see at the range:

I see that's a 2-pack. Probably don't need two of them, unless you've got a range buddy who wants one, too.

It's also available at Lowe's (as a single unit) for $14.

The carbon fiber pattern is a lie!

Found one of these in the local Home Depot. The pattern is actually molded into the surface. So it looks to basically be a mix of fiber and epoxy which is then molded. I'm guessing that's why they use the term "Carbon Fiber Composite". That's minus 100 cool points.

It was still light and I'm guessing that the construction is still probably stronger than plastic so I picked it up.

I meant to mention how light it is. Kind of the Glock of the stapler world.
