    Default 18 guage nailgun/stapler

    I bought on ebay a pretty cheap nailgun/stapler $80 and am now trying to source some staples for it. Don't ask me the brand can't even find it in the cattledog that came with it - it is a yellow gun.

    Anyway it says it takes 18 gauge nails and 18 gauge staples. I can find the nails in carbatec catalogue but don't know where to find 18 gauge staples. I have tried Bunny's - anyone know if they exist? Carbatecs catalogue refers to 15-1/2 GA flooring staples and 6mm staples - my gun is a little thing.

    I am in Brisbane, but surely a chain hardware store would stock them?
    Cheers

    Okay - I have tried C & L tools and they say they have some 18 gauge staples - bring along the gun and see if they fit - so maybe in luck

    don't know if this helps but I got the brads for my yellow gun from (of all places) BigW. Might be worth a try.
