The cartridge body has a first side comprising a plurality of staple apertures configured to eject staples housed in the cartridge body. The cartridge body has a second side, opposite the first side, comprising a plurality of pusher apertures through which staple pushers of the cartridge body are accessible. A staple retainer is removably coupled to the first side of the cartridge body and at least partially covers the plurality of staple apertures. A cover is removably coupled to and at least partially covers the plurality of pusher apertures. Devices and methods relate to stapler reload assemblies.
