Not at all. That was 14 years ago. I was 20 years old and needed some money. Went to town, bought a saw, maul, and went to work. After that year my dad gifted me a MS 270 to continue and I never looked back! I still have it. Now I just cut wood for my house and my parents house. And enjoy every...

Poulan wild thing. I had 3 within a year. Walmart had a good exchange policy back then. They all just lost compression. I was trying to cut firewood with them for money while going through college. Probably used them for more than they were intended for in their defense Sent from my iPhone...

Agreed I’ve look at them. Just really enjoy the open fire still. I see one in our future just not too soon... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

my MS461 is gonna have an easy life. About 10-12 cords a year is all it gets. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk[/IMG]

I have a MS461. 20”, 25”, and 32” bar. I only cut firewood for me and my family, just always wanted a bigger mid size saw. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

My 4 saw line up as of now(since I down graded quite a bit in the recent years). MS 170 with 14” bar for small yard work MS 461 with 20” bar used the most MS 461 with 25” bar used the 2nd most MS 461 with 32” bar used very little Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

This little thing just won’t die. I’d love to replace it but it won’t give me a reason too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Small world in some aspects. My wife is from Mentone Alabama Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m in Southeast too. Arkansas Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m pretty much about like you. My wife could care to hear about my chainsaws and I really don’t have any buddies that have any interest in them. This forum helps me out with that. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I won’t argue with that.[emoji1303] Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Your saw rips! My 461 ain’t no joke either though Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I didn’t reinstall them on my 461. No real issues except getting in the screw head when tuning Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

You can get on their website and check. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m in the same situation. I do not do this for a living. I just tune my own saws. I bought the $19 tach on eBay. You wrap it about 5 times around the plug wire. Works great! The one I got has a memory that will keep the peak RPM until you clear it. The wireless is sweet though. I just couldn’t...

Hard to believe that stihl #1 seller has this problem. I got a feeling there’s something being missed on diagnosing the problem. That’s really nice of you to sell it off to someone else so they can have the problem... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I only cut firewood for my house and my parents. I will never regret buying my 461. It’s a huge step up from my previous ms310. Mine wears a 20” most of the time. It came with a 25” bar. I have plans to soon buy a 32” with a skip chain for the occasional need. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

MS 170. Cheap and reliable. I’ve been thinking mine was needing replaced 4 years ago. I’m still using it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I’m truly just a firewood cutter with a huge interest in chainsaws. I’ve bought, sold and traded many saws over the years. Last year I bought the last 461 my dealer had. Very pleased with the saws performance. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

After you get the trail cut in, you’ll want a hedge trimmer to keep it clean and open. I maintain a lot of MTB trail and use the hedge trimmer more than anything else. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
