A medical device for engaging tissue, the medical device comprising: a housing defining an internal passageway and a longitudinal axis extending between proximal and distal ends of the housing, the housing defining a jaw guide surface along the internal passageway, the jaw guide surface having a distal end; a first jaw having a proximal end slidably and pivotally connected to the housing, the first jaw slidably received within the internal passageway for longitudinal movement along the jaw guide surface between an extended position and a retracted position; a second jaw having a proximal end slidably and pivotally connected to the housing, the second jaw slidably received within the internal passageway for longitudinal movement along the jaw guide surface between an extended position and a retracted position; a jaw pin extending through the proximal end of the first jaw, the jaw pin engaging the jaw guide surface of the housing; and a driver engaged with the proximal end of the first jaw, longitudinal movement of the driver moving the first jaw longitudinally along the jaw guide surface between its retracted and extended position, longitudinal movement of the driver rotating the first jaw relative to the housing when the first jaw is in its extended position; characterized in that the jaw pin further extends through the proximal end of the second jaw; and the driver is further engaged with the proximal end of the second jaw; wherein longitudinal movement of the driver moving the second jaw longitudinally along the jaw guide surface between its retracted and extended position, longitudinal movement of the driver rotating the second jaw relative to the housing when the second jaw is in its extended position. a housing defining an internal passageway and a longitudinal axis extending between proximal and distal ends of the housing, the housing defining a jaw guide surface along the internal passageway, the jaw guide surface having a distal end; a first jaw having a proximal end slidably and pivotally connected to the housing, the first jaw slidably received within the internal passageway for longitudinal movement along the jaw guide surface between an extended position and a retracted position; a second jaw having a proximal end slidably and pivotally connected to the housing, the second jaw slidably received within the internal passageway for longitudinal movement along the jaw guide surface between an extended position and a retracted position; a jaw pin extending through the proximal end of the first jaw, the jaw pin engaging the jaw guide surface of the housing; and a driver engaged with the proximal end of the first jaw, longitudinal movement of the driver moving the first jaw longitudinally along the jaw guide surface between its retracted and extended position, longitudinal movement of the driver rotating the first jaw relative to the housing when the first jaw is in its extended position; characterized in that the jaw pin further extends through the proximal end of the second jaw; and the driver is further engaged with the proximal end of the second jaw; wherein longitudinal movement of the driver moving the second jaw longitudinally along the jaw guide surface between its retracted and extended position, longitudinal movement of the driver rotating the second jaw relative to the housing when the second jaw is in its extended position.
