staple guns, anyone?

Definitely. Only the old guys here will remember Heckle and Jeckle, Tom Terrific, and Beanie and Cecil.

JFK, the Berlin Wall, Edward White, the Cuban missile crisis, John Glenn, the Tonkin Gulf invasion, Wilt the Stilt, the Twist, Cassius Clay, Telstar, Francis Gary Powers, the 'vast wastland'....

Sorry, it doesn't ring a bell.
 
The staples guns work very well on the TJI floor joist web. Trying to use regular staples just bounce off the web too much.

The only drawback I see is the cost and the occassion jam.

FWIW the GB staples do not work in the Power Strap gun.

I tried that once; that was all it took. Now, I staple into the top surface of the bottom flange or the bottom surface of the top flange.

However, I do seem to have luck nailing stand-offs into the web. Maybe it's the angle of the nail. See:
