I think the rear is solid, no port there. I'm actually away from my regular tools and working with an Arrow hammer tacker this week, which loads from the rear. (and hasn't misfired in 2000 shots... I do recall that H2B jamming a bit more often than this modern Arrow fastener) It loads from the front; twist the lock aside and the front pops open. you can fit 100 or so staples in that way.

I have been loading from the front but this seems awkward and, I notice in your pictures that the cartridge is extended to the rear of the tool, past the plastic handle. This leads me to think that the cartridge holds many more staples than I have been loading at one time. Any suggestions will be appreciated, and I will be grateful. Ed Kim,

Welcome to the world of self-entitlement and the ungrateful. I think I'll go see if he neglected to properly credit his sources since he is being paid to use my knowledge.
