An improved surgical stapler including a digital counter to facilitate easy accounting of the number of staples consumed during a procedure. The surgical stapler also includes audible feedback including a first audible sound to indicate when an individual staple has been formed and a second audible sound to indicate that the stapler is ready to begin another staple forming process. The surgical stapler is of simple construction that lends itself to low cost production and mass assembly techniques thereby enabling it to be a disposable device.
