I was wondering what the cost of the 460R version is over the 460. I haven't checked with my dealer yet. See what you guys said before the dealer told me I didn't need it around here.
So with the R version I get the 3/4 wrap, bigger oil pump and the dual dogs right? Am I missing anything else?
Well, I just called the dealer and they misunderstood me. They thought I wanted the Rescue version, then I cleared that all up and said no, this is what I want. Well, they said I could get the 460, then order the 3/4 handle for it -OR - just buy the rescue for $200+ bucks more. They dont sell those (R)'s here. I guess I'll try another dealer.
Most dealers east of the miss don't even know they are available. I have not seen one dealer in all my traveling that has had a wrap model anything on the shelf. It will need to be ordered.
the wrap handle by itself is about 90 bucks, then the deeper side cover, dual spike, and roller chain catcher kit is about another 60-80 bucks on top of that. The R version is a better deal than buying a regular and putting a wrap handle on it.
Wrong saw - that's the Fire Dept rescue version.
The dealers I've talked to cant order it. Its get the standard version and add $xxx to that to make it an (R) - without HO oiler. Or just buy the Rescue, which is totally unnecessary.
I'm not giving up yet though. There are more dealers around. Maybe one of the will have a clue what I'm talking about.
If they will sell you a Rescue 460 for only two hundred more than a regular 460 you should grab it ASAP, thats a deal. The 36RDR chain on the Rescue lists for 355.00 in case ya didn't know. It will cut through 2 inch bullet proof glass like butter. It will cut metal, nails, concrete and most anything else. Any fire company will gladly give you 250.00 for that chain and you can toss a standard chain back on the saw and go cut wood...
It ends up being a little over $350 difference actually. Does the rescue have the H.O. oil pump?

Thats awful. Here the R is what is sitting on the shelf!
