Abstract
An extendible wire guide is slidably fitted at the front of a staple gun tool housing. An easily operated lever switch is linked to the wire guide to enable the wire guide to be deployed or retracted. The lever switch includes an up and a down position corresponding to a retracted and an extended position of the wire guide. The wire guide is resiliently biased, preferably toward the retracted position. The lever switch acts on the wire guide against the bias through a cam action on an upper edge of the wire guide. A bias spring is preloaded in a subassembly of the wire guide and bias spring for simplified final assembly.
