Ordered it so hopefully it'll be here in a week or two. What have you guys paid for them?? PHO it was almost 1700. I ordered it thinking I've read better things about it than the 880. So I call my dealer to just see what the 880 wrap went for. 1639 with a 36" bar! And I think it was 1749 or so with a 59" bar. Really wishing I hadn't ordered that husky, but I do like that its the sane bar mount as my others so I can use some bars I have for my 395.

And he said that was 10% off! It goes through our little local ace store. I have to special order any husky's there but they don't service or stalk any parts for saws. Next one is a Murdochs two hours away where my Stihl dealer is located. So usually I just go Stihl due to better PR and parts availability. But geez I feel like I got hammered after I called Ken about the 880

I asked a dealer in Colorado about the 880 or the 3120 XP, he clearly said the 3120 was better. Just for a note, he sells echo, husky, and stihl for saws. Although i was going to use it for milling. I personally much prefer the switches on the husky saws as compared to the stihl. The air filtration is also better on the husky, good choice IMO

Roll tide was running a 9 pin with a 36" on the 395XP I built him at the WKY GTG......till he slung the chain. :laugh:

That's why I said 8 pin instead of 9. The longer bars just don't have the belly or a wide enough tail on the husky mount saws for a 9 pin. The large mount stihl probably can get away with it.

I agree.

This 084 I just got is set up with 36" .404 I may keep it that way.....

No weenie here! 6'3" 240 and played some college ball. im sure i can handle the lil girl ;)

I told the guy to order it 3/8 so i can run my existing bars on it. but we'll see i looked on Husky's website and im pretty sure they spec a .404 drive. Either way it will prolly get an 8 pin 3/8 either way.

Randy your wife spoils you!

And it'll be getting an unlimited coil and high jet sooner than later.
