Staple guns are awsome, much faster shooting than nail guns and 1/3 less re-loading time.
They also are the least often used fasteners and have been outlawed in some areas, so check your local codes before you use them.

Shingle staples usually have a 15/16" crown or 1" crown.Like others have said most areas and manufacturers don't allow them anymore.
