A magazine for a fastener driving tool automatically opening in the event of jamming to provide ready access to the deformed fastener. The fastener magazine is movably secured relative to a driver assembly by a cammed hinge, and a resiliently biased releasable latch located between the magazine and nose assembly maintaining the magazine in a fastener feeding position. The latch releases in response to jamming of a deformed fastener and the expansive forces generated thereby, whereupon the cammed hinge permits the magazine to move under the influence of such forces to a release position spaced from the nose assembly to allow access to the deformed fastener.
