I was at my dealer today and they had just got their spring shipment of hand held equipment in. It was all loaded on a skid with clear plastic shrink wrap. I was looking to see if there was any thing new like the 261 291 271 etc. As I was nosing through, I saw it! Yes folks there it was!!! A box labeled "MS440". I asked my parts guy if we could open it up and check it out. He told me that they were not to assemble or display it till April 11th per Stihl. The only thing he could tell me that the retail price will be $839.99 with a 25" bar. That is $20 less than the MS441 with the same bar! I was/am tempted to leave a deposit on it, if it is the same as the old ms440.
