1. A deck clip magazine, for use with a pneumatic fastener gun and a plurality of generally T-shaped deck clips each having a top horizontal portion with opposing sides and at least one integrally formed vertical portion extending downwardly from the top horizontal portion spaced apart from the opposing sides and a fastening aperture located centrally on the top horizontal portion for receiving a fastener, and wherein the plurality of generally T-shaped deck clips are attached to one another by webbing to form a clip belt having a leading clip, the deck clip magazine comprising:
a housing having a channel shaped to receive the clip belt, a front end with an opening to permit egress of the leading clip from the channel, and an aperture aligned with the barrel of the pneumatic fastener gun and shaped to permit passage of the fasteners from the pneumatic fastener gun therethrough, an inwardly biased movable stop located adjacent the opening and configured to retain the clip belt within the channel so as to position the leading clip with its fastening aperture in vertical alignment with the aperture and the barrel of the pneumatic fastener gun and one side of the top horizontal portion of the leading clip protruding beyond the opening, wherein the inwardly biased movable stop is releasable to permit egress of the leading clip; a cutting mechanism aligned with the webbing between the leading clip and the adjacent clip selectively actuable to sever the webbing between the leading clip and the adjacent clip in the clip belt; and a spring-loaded follower in the channel biased toward the front end to advance the deck clips towards the opening against the inwardly biased movable stop. |
