That of course my friend was a mistake! You should have ordered a Makita EA4300F to get a good saw....Well i have officially ordered a ps-421!
Regarding my new 421, does anyone know off-hand what drive link count of a compatible Stihl PS chain would be?
I ran a Redmax GZ4000 this weekend at the GTG and was super impressed. It cuts far stronger than it's 2.4hp suggest, and it is a flyweight. I would LOVE to have one ported. I think one went home with Randy. When I see how it turned out, I might pony up and buy one. They are on Ebay for $210.
Best guess
If it's a 14 inch chain, should be 52 dl.
If it's a 16 inch chain, should be 56 dl.
Exact numbers will be stamped on the bar itself.
Take Care
This was a good read. The Redmax did very well considering it's price point. GZ4000, 420, and 241cm

Get some Stihl chain instead. You just need the correct numbers and won't regret it!Thanks! 16". I wanted to order a chain from Bailey's ahead of time and they have 55 and 56 counts. Saw should be delivered tomorrow, so I can wait to confirm the bar stamp. I was thinking 56, but wasn't sure.

I'm happy with the Oregon VXL on mine
The stock chain was safety chain. I was just telling you to give the Oregon VXL a look unless you want full chisel chain.Is that the stock chain on a 421, or were you not directing your comment toward me?
