I use the Arrow JT27. Its probably not the lightest (steel) but it is fairly compact. (for a HD stapler)
ETA: It fits very nicely in a small pocket of my 5.11 Rush 72 bag that I use for the range. |

I have been using a small Red Arrow JT21 for many years... has been a good/reliable Staple gun that has served me well.

Screw staples. I use cheap spray adhesive.

What about good old masking tape?

The Powershot is pretty sweet because you apply pressure over where the staple comes out instead of at the other end of the gun which tilts it away from your target.

A bunch of big, panhead screws from your local hardware store, maybe with wide washers for windy days will do much better than any staple gun, and weigh little compared to a staple gun. they'll work with almost any backstop medium, from cardboard to foam.
If you have an incredibly windy day, then put some duct tape on the corners and sides of the target to reinforce where the screw/washer fastens the target. I gave up on staple guns long ago. |

Since my range has corrugated plastic board backers, I think it's going to have to be staples instead of some other hardware. And as for tape, I've tried and tried to get tape to consistently hold a variety of targets on backers. I've never gotten tape to hold all four corners at the same time without some sort of issue.
