I guess they had to now that DeWALT has a cordless framing nailer.
It’s the same as the DCN690 with only a few cosmetic (housing) differences.
The batteries, charger and kitbox are 1:1 with DeWALT. Just a different color.
This is out in Europe now and retails at about the same price as DeWALT’s model.

Man Paslode has to be worried no SBD is pushing these cordless nailers hard, and to be honest I love my Paslode but the Dewalt is a better deal now that its out. Does the Bostich use Dewalt 20v battery packs or the one they released for the Bostitch Cordless tools? I would imagine its the Bostich battery packs but you never know.
It seems it uses the same 20v Max/18v XR 4.0Ah packs. They look identical. Even the charger and kitbox are the same.
See the review below. But then again, Europe doesn’t have the Bostitch powertools as far as I know.
There’s 2 models actually. The BF33-E (or BF33-2) and the BF33-U-2 which only has a sequential mode, no bump mode.
DeWALT has this as well in Europe with the DCN691, but I haven’t seen it and it’s not available in every country.
