I recently bought this stapler to do my own floor stapling work. I have a shallow basement with a dirty floor and I have 15,000 staples to remove. It went about 1/3 the job and there wasn't a single problem. No jams (as some others have reported) and very easy to reload in tight spaces. This gun rolled in the mud due to limited space and still works well. I can't believe this job would be without him. I bought Spot Nails Spot Nails 1804PG 1/2 leg braces similar to the Bostitch series SX5035 7/32 crown, 5000/box and they work great, much cheaper than Bostitch braces. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I5V2E9G/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
