...There is a new kid on the block. HAHAHA. Been messin' with a 621 Redmax as of late. After seeing it whoop a MS361 (both saws stock), I figured I would have a go at one. It is likely the lowest priced 62cc saw on the market, has quality Japanese construction, and a really nice air filter. It also uses thin 1.2mm rings.
This saw has great potential and responds very well to mods - very similar to the 359 Husky. BUT, I have ported both and will say the 621 is by far the better choice as it has more 'hidden power' that is easier to coax, and FAR SUPERIOR construction - especially the P&C. I could bore you all with the details of the build and pictures of my port work, but I'll spare you. With a muffler mod and strong woods port, this saw gained 46%.
If a guy does his shopping right, he can pick up a 621, have it ported, pay just slightly more than a new MS361, and come out with a saw that will cut twice as fast. Sounds like a winner to me
