Am I correct that all the above saws except the 031 are the same "group",
and the 031 is more like the 041 in build and quality? Maybe a little older?

yes very similar to the 041 just smaller!!!!!!
That was my thought, but hard to tell from the Stihl "0" end switching game.
One of those, usually but not always.
Thanks Bill.
SorT of a MINI 075?

For some reason every time I see an 031 around here it's sticking out of the side of a saw shops mailbox post. 
What is it about that saw that makes them do that????

Actually the 041 looks like a mini 075 the 031 has a longer profile and the airfilter is built in to the handle area,,,,
Thanks, I knew the 041 looked like a mine 075, I got a crapload of them right now and was wondering about the 031, knowing the tale of the others. It just didn't seem to fit with them.
Okay, so is the 030,031,032 a series?
I have 041, 041S{obviously} and some 050/051/075/076s. I would say too many and need to get rid of some, but don't want to get stoned for being an unbeliever.
Thanks again.

Ebay is where I get saw pics. Just forgot to look.
Thanks though.

Naming conventions
I was just wondering about this topic... The Stihl naming convention for their saws. Is there any pattern? Is it logical to assume that a 440 is just a prior year saw to the 441? ...and where does the 044 fit in? I am guessing that they are model year differences, but, like the OP pointed out, add in different grade saws and it gets confusing.

Yes...... No........... Well kinda.
in general
the 0_4 saws all got about a 2mm increase in bore diameter and became the 0_6 saws
The 0_6 saws went largely unchanged mechanically and got some cosmetic changes and became the MS_60 saws.
The "1" saws are completely different designs but their numbers correspond to the saw size they replaced in the line-up.
Now this is a pretty loose rule of thumb as some models were changed more than others at certain points either at the model number change or between the changes.
So you see it's really kinda simple....... well kinda.

Erick,
Wow! I'll bet if you go into your back yard, drill straight down for 12756.1 km you would end up in ................ Troms, North Norway.

I have an 030 and a 041S and don't find them that similiar.
