1. A stapling device comprising an anvil leg (12) having an anvil plate (18) at a front region (16) of the anvil leg (12), a staple magazine (24), which is pivotable to a limited extent relative to the anvil leg (12) about a transverse axis (22) arranged in a rear region (20) of the anvil leg (12), a driver (30) for passing staples through a gap (28) at a front end (26) of the staple magazine (24), said gap being arranged above the anvil plate (18), and an actuation apparatus (34) for acting upon the driver (30) toward the anvil plate (18) against a restoring force of a driver spring (48), wherein the actuation apparatus (34) has a solenoid (36) and a striking pin (40) for acting upon a driver anvil (46) fixedly connected to the driver (30), the striking pin being movable by the solenoid (36), and wherein, between the gap (28) and the transverse axis (22), the staple magazine (24) is supported on the anvil leg (12) by a magazine spring (50), wherein the magazine spring (50) is configured such that the staple magazine (24) rests on the anvil leg (12) or on the anvil plate (18) due to a force of gravity acting on the staple magazine (24) and overcoming a spring force of the magazine spring (50).
