A fastener positioning device is illustrated wherein an elongated member is slidably carried within a housing, the elongated member having a notch at the forward end thereof opening at the front end and on one side of the elongated member for receiving an enlarged fastener with the shank depending through the notch, and a retaining leaf spring engaging the enlarged head of the fastener. Means are provided for moving the elongated member forwardly while the retaining means supports and maintains the fastener within the notch during forward movement of the elongated member, but freeing the fastener when the elongated member is in forward position to permit retraction of the elongated member.
