Will the 21 degree plastic collated round head framing nails you find in the big box stores work in a PC FR350A. The manual says to use 22 degree nails. Lots of places carry 22 degree but not as convinent or cheap as just buying 21 deg.
What is the difference between a 350 and a 350A?

yep
Don't know the difference. PC site might tell you.
Have you bought the PC framer yet? I had one, and even with light use it was unreliable. Setting the depth was not easy. jammed much too frequently. Finally gave it away and bought a Ridgid. that might not have been the best replacement, but I had to have something in less than an hour, and the only store available was HD. it has worked very well.

I already have the FR350A but I've only used about 1000 nails and they were expensive coated ringshank 22 degree nails.
Looking at the Porter Cable website I guess a clipped head nailer is an FC350.
Guess I'll go try a box of 3000 21 degree nails.
21 or 22° works equally well in any framing nailer with that angle collation. PC makes a cliphead and a full roundhead nailer, The "A" might designate one of these.

I use them for my pc350 full round head nailer.
