Apparatus for driving fastening elements (9), such as nails, bolts, clips and the like, into a receiving material includes a magazine (3) extending laterally outwardly from a guide (1). The magazine (3) holds a carrying strip (10) for the fastening elements (9) and a transport slide (8) which, in cooperation with the magazine, can be shifted parallel to the driving direction of the apparatus. The magazine (3) has a housing (31) and a guide channel (37) opening into a transport channel (11) in the guide (1). The guide channel (37) is formed by two laterally spaced guide rails (5, 6) each with a surface facing the other and profiled with tooth-shaped projections having tooth flanks of different lengths with the flanks facing the transport channel (11) being shorter. A first guide rail (5) can be displaced away from a second guide rail (6) parallel to the length of the guide channel (37) by the transport slide (8). The transport slide (8) interacts with a control cam (53) located on the first guide rail (5). Both the first and second guide rails (5, 6) can be shifted laterally against the force of a spring (7).
