A setting tool, comprising a housing (1);

• a stud guide (2) located in the housing (1);
• a hopper (3) extending sidewise of the stud guide (2) for receiving a nail magazine (19), the hopper (3) having a guide channel extending parallel to a longitudinal extent of the hopper (3) and having two guide regions (4, 5) spaced from each other in a direction parallel to a setting direction of the setting tool and extending a long the guide channel;
• a drawer (9) arranged in the guide channel and displaceable between an initial position, in which the drawer (9) adjoins a space in which the nail magazine is received, and a transporting position;
• a scroll spring (7) provided in the drawer (9) for retaining the drawer (9) in its initial position and having a free end thereof secured to the hopper (3) in a region of the hopper (3) adjacent to the stud guide (2);
• a cover (13) for closing the hopper (3) and displaceable along the hopper (3) between a closed position, in which the cover (13) closes the hopper (3), and an open position in which the nail magazine can be inserted into the hopper (3), the cover (13) having means (14) for displacing the drawer (9), upon displacement of the cover (13) to its open position, from its initial position to its transporting position in which the drawer (9) clears a section of the guide channel for insertion of the nail magazine;
• and means (6, 20) for formlockingly connecting the drawer (9) to the hopper (3) in the transporting position of the drawer (9), wherein the formlockingly connecting means comprises a two-arm retaining clip (6) associated with the hopper (3) and opening toward the stud guide (2), with the arms being elastic in a direction transverse to the setting direction and transverse to the longitudinal extent of the hopper (3), and two openings (2) provided in the drawer (9) and in which free ends of the two arms engage, respectively, in the transporting position of the drawer (9) for formlockingly connecting the drawer (9) with the hopper (3).
