The improved stop com- prises a substantially L-shaped resilient member having a long leg and a short leg.

The short leg has an intermediate clip-contacting portion normally extending across the pusher track. The clip-contacting portion is shiftable by an advancing clip out of the pusher track, and returns into the pusher track behind a fully advanced clip to prevent rearward movement of the clip during the clip-applying and clamp- ing procedure and to dislodge the clip from the pusher if adhered thereto by body fluids or the like.
