It's the same as the Bostitch BTFP12569 with a different paint job.

Yes... Stanley Black & Decker... the destroyer of quality brand tools.
* But their profits are going up as their quality goes down!
This is one of those older style air tools that has declined in usage, so it makes business sense to not reinvent the wheel. Proprietary battery operated are becoming more popular as a convenience for the occasional usage, but those installing thousands of square feet per year in high end homes still use pneumatic, including this model that does not come with a case. If you have never done much of it and using real wood, a floor jack is nice, but you can use blocks and wedges.
The newest DeWalt should have a slightly different handle, but I can't tell any functional difference between the DeWalt, Bostitch, Freeman or even the cheaper NuMax. I suppose if someone wanted to take the time, they could chase down parts for comparison. A neighbor did his family room with a much cheaper Wen and a floor jack. For some reason, when you get into the heavier [lighter- thanks rhankins] 18ga, is when you start seeing a difference in price with the name brands.
