Quick question, is there issue with getting a clipped head frame nailer over round head?

I am VERY tempted to get this package especially since I was looking for a good circular saw to begin with.

$215 including shipping for the hypoid saw + frame nailer is too tempting to pass up.

hpark2,

I asked this question awhile back. Basically clipped vs. round head boils down to two issues: local codes and nail availability.

Though clipped head nails are fine in our area (Ohio) per my friend in construction, they are often code in other areas, especially coastal areas. I believe the reason for this is the hurricanes that come to those areas, where they feel the slightly larger head area of the round head nail offers additional holding power over the smaller clipped head.

Additionally, you should check what nails are available in your area. Lowes and HD seem to carry both in my area, but others have found the supplies more limited.
