    efco 152....would you pay 3 bills for new

    The 270 was here for only a year or two and had a very poor track record. Not one of Stihl's best saws.

    efco 152....would you pay 3 bills for new

    Until the MS271 came out Stihl had no saw that was a direct competitor to the 152. MS250 below and MS290 above. The MS271 is a nice saw, apart from weight.

    Inside the MS241C

    We will probably bring the 241 in as an order only saw. We have 2 presold. Our customer base will buy the 231 before the 241. The 230 was one of our best sellers. Homeowners that want a pro saw will pay the $50 extra for a 261.

    efco 152....would you pay 3 bills for new

    I have put over 600 tanks of gas thru the 152 model of saws. They are a very good saw. They are not a "pro" saw as stated by Efco's own marketing. They are however a step above most brands "farm" or "ranch" saws. They are 4 port, closed port, non clamshell design. No plastic crankcase, but...

    Inside the MS241C

    The 241 will sell for $595 in Canada. Good price, the 242 Husqvarnas were going for $725 here in the 1990's.

    Husqvarna 254xp or Husqvarna 55 closed port

    254 beats the 55 hands down. Even the closed port 55 was below the semi pro saws. Listed as a landowner saw in literature up here. The 254 was not overlooked up North. It was the #1 selling saw in Canada for a several years.

    Next generation Stihl 50cc saw = 254XP?

    I have owned over 20 154-254 xp saws in my logging days. Great saws. One of my all time favorites. Specs, weight and handling of the 261 are similar. I like the 261 better however. Better av and filter. To me the 261 is what the replacement for the 254 should have been.

    Brad, where is your CM made US or Germany?

    We ordered 12 regular 261s Friday. The warehouse was empty and we got the CM instead. When your dealer reorders the CM be sent.

    You don't have to come to me. Every dealer up here can have them now. Regular 261 is long gone.

    husky 350 to 357

    I have the remains of a big bore 357 here. Brother in law had it. 272 on a 357 case. Built by Gilles Levesque. Ran nice for a few years.

    Brad, are both versions of 261 going to be available? If I understand correctly up here once the stock of carb 261s are gone it will be CM only.
