I figured you would like that Bob.
She is wearing a 24" Oregon versacut bar right now. The colours of the bar go well with the saw.

I am hot on the trail of a 2171..... I know, it is not a 2172..... but it will do for now and round out the family quite nicely.
My brother in law just got his old 2071 back but the poor thing was seized twice and freed up. Then a tree fell on it.
Never had a red saw. I do have a jonsered bar on my 545 though.

That 2172 still he as the paint on the muffler. I traded a Husqvarna 350 and a ms250 sthil for it.
The 2172 and 372 are the same inside. The top cover,recoil cover, air filter, filter horn and wrap handle are different.
Only red saw I own...
Like a fine RED Wine, you appreciate it the more you use it.

Another shot with the 24" on.
Isn't that a solid steel bar (as opposed to laminated?).
I have difficulty searching the solid steel Oregon bars, some sources say one thing, others another thing.
NICE SAW!

I think they are aluminum core and glued. They seem to hold up better than the laser bars with the limited experience we have with them.
20" is "More Funner".
I have a 18" on my 68cc Shinny 695 & it's just PLAIN FUN!
I have 20" bars for the 2172,61 Husqvarna,and 133 Sachs Dolmar. 18" bars on my ms 260, Ann 116&120 Sachs Dolmars. And 15" bars on my 520sp & 2145 jreds. I also have a 25" .404 for the 133.
I like the 2171 better myself compared to the 2172 ...sold a super clean 2171 heated handle a few years ago ( in my avatar,) however like my 372xpw more just my preferenceI am hot on the trail of a 2171..... I know, it is not a 2172..... but it will do for now and round out the family quite nicely.

I traded for one a few years ago that was in pretty sad shape. A few days later, it was repaired by me, and to this day it wears a 24" bar and chain. It's one of my favorites actually.

I bought my 372xp brand new from my local hardware store. I bought through him as he always supports our local team sports for my kids and I appreciate that. Anyway, I bought it I believe 10-12 years ago when there was word that they were going to stop making this "legend" of a saw so I decided to have him order me one. When I went to pick mine up, I noticed he had a second one, so I inquired why he had a 2nd one as well, and he said that if they're going to stop making them he had better buy two! He also had a brand new 272 on display as well that probably was 10 years old at the time. We're in an area where a 70cc saw is considered HUGE. I was in the store even a few years after I had bought mine and that 2nd 372xp and the 272 were still there..I should stop in and see if they still are and see if I can get the still new 372xp for the $800 out the door price I got mine for... Mine has been a very good saw, I probably haven't used it as much as some of you use your saws, but I've cut a lot of firewood with it and clean up around the farm. The only issue I've had is that the kill switch no longer works, in that it won't shut off, so I just choke it to kill it. It has been doing that for the last several years.

Owning a 372XPW may I ask, what is a mandatory transfer port adjusting?
