An automatic hemostatic clip applicator (10) is disclosed wherein the jaws (112,114), cartridge assembly (130) and jaw housing move together in a single direction to crimp a clip resulting in a perception of little or no motion by the jaws when the applicator is activated. Camming surfaces in the jaws are brought into contact with camming surfaces on the distal end of the stationary body of the applicator as the jaws are moved proximally. |
