My Arrow T-50 finally broke after many years of jam-ups. I’ve used it where a hammer stapler won’t work. Now left with many boxes of arrow staples I’m wondering if I should switch. Are the newer T-50s less jam prone, or is it a lost cause?

Duo-Fast
Same as you, I had alot of jams with a years-old T-50, but just bought another one. Insides seem the same, but not a jam yet. I think they wear out/corrode over the years.
duo-fast, even my new arrow is junk, never again
What about craftsman stapler? Uses T-50 staples I hear.
I've got a craftsman stapler and it only likes craftsman staples. T-50 staples jam up like crazy in it.
