Abstract
An explosive powder charge operated setting device includes an axially extending barrel with a guide magazine for a nail strip extending transversely of the barrel axis. A spring member within the magazine biases individual nails in the strip into the barrel bore. The magazine is aligned with a first aperture opening through the barrel into the bore. Diametrically opposite the first aperture is a second aperture so that a nail strip can be introduced through the second aperture, the barrel, and the first aperture, into the magazine. A stop is displaceably mounted on the barrel and can be held in a first position in the second aperture for holding nails in the strip in axial alignment with the barrel bore axis.
