3/4 wrap handle for MS460

[red87chevy]

Anyone know of any manufacturers that sell the 3/4 wrap handles? I really wanted to get the one that Madsens has in there catalog, but i was told they would put me on the list about a month ago and they were backordered for 2 months prior to that. The stihl one is almost double the price, i just wanted to see if anyone had good luck with any other brands before i buy the Stihl one.
Thanks

You could probably make some decent coin doing it...

You have to get on the backorder list. That's what I did, 1 month later they called and said "we have your handlebar." The guy that makes them is a 1 man show working out of his garage I've heard. Super happy so far with the USA Made 3/4 wrap on my old beater 044.

I guess I got real lucky when I order one for my 440 last year. I had it in a few days. No mention of a waiting list. I do like the handle a lot.

That is a sweet saw man!!! I will get a picture of my 460 up once i get my 3/4 wrap on it. I may be working out a deal where i make a 3/4 wrap with my buddy at his machine shop and will post it if any interest arises. I'm not very patient with waiting and am one of the most picky fabricaters, so both of those go in my favor!
