The legs (2, 3) are inclined in the direction in which they approach each other, and one (3) of the legs is twisted in a plane (4) including the body (1) and the other leg (2) in the direction to the outside of the plane (4). The magazine (B) has a body guide section (11) having a dimension substantially the same as or slightly smaller than the length of the body (1) of the staple (A) and guiding the body (1) while carrying it on the body guide section (11), hanging sections (12) hanging from opposite ends of the body guide section (11) and having a dimension smaller than the dimension of the legs (2, 3), and leg guide sections (13) formed at the lower ends of the hanging sections (12) and guiding the heads of the legs (2, 3).
