This invention is a manually operated tool for driving nails, which securely holds the nail to be driven in the central tube of a nozzle at the front of this tool, by means of a magnet. Force is applied to the head of the nail by means of a striker, securely attached to a striker housing which slides back and forth inside a guide tube, and forces the nail out of the nozzle. The movement of the striker assembly is controlled by the operator pushing and pulling on the hand grip which transmits this motion directly to the striker housing via the inside front face of the end cover grip which is screwed into and thus an integral part of the hand grip. The operator first pulls the hand grip to the full extent of the guide housing until it is stopped by the retainer, then holds the nozzle against the surface into which the nail is to be driven with one hand and operates the hand grip which activates the striker with a sliding movement of the other hand, in a manner similar to the operation of a hand-held bicycle tire air pump, thus driving the nail into the surface. With the tool in a horizontal position, nails of various sizes can be pre-loaded into the nail magazine through a slot in the nail magazine cover. By releasing the safety catch, the spring in the guide housing pushes back the hand grip ready for the nail to be indexed into the nozzle. When a compartment in the nail magazine comes into line with the opening in the nozzle housing, the nail in the magazine compartment will drop through the opening into the central tube of the nozzle where it is held by a magnet until forced out by the striker. Nails may also be loaded into the nozzle manually from the front end by sliding the head of the nail in first where it will be held by the magnet until it is forced out by the striker. On completion of the job and for storing purposes, the hand grip is pushed forward and secured with a safety catch, thus keeping the nozzle empty.
