A tacker for driving fasteners (11) into an object (14), which optionally consist of U-shaped staples or nails, has a driver (13) which in an ejecting motion ejects a fastener (11) and drives it into the object (14). Catches (19b) are arranged to prevent a nail (11) fed to an ejecting position from tilting to an inclined position which significantly deviates from the direction of ejecting/driving in. The catches (19b) are movable between a first position in which they extend into the path of the ejecting motion of the driver (13), and a second position in which they are moved away from this path against spring action. Each catch (19b) is fomre don a tongue (19) which is punched in a plate (18) and bent to L shape, one L leg (19b) of the tongue extending perpendicular to the plane of the plate and ofmring the catch and the other L leg (19a) being positioned in the plane of the plate and ofmring a part which in a resiliently yielding manner supports the catch. Said one L leg (19b) of the tongue (19) has a ramp surface (19c) for such cooperation with the driver (13) that the catch is moved away against spring action to its second postion direct or indirect by the driver during the ejecting motion thereof.
