Couldn't help but notice that the Dolmar 420 was absent. Guess that you didn't want to flat out spank the others, eh? :hmm3grin2orange::hmm3grin2orange:

just got a ps 421 last week pulled the cat, its a strong runner
 
MS 250
....

Even I would take a MS250 over the ones listed initially here, despite I don't like that saw at all - it just is a larger and more capable saw, despite all its shortcomings (and it doesn't belong in a thread about 40cc saws). :msp_sneaky:
 
That saw weights like the best 50cc saws, and it isn't a "homeowner" class saw.

It is totally irrelevant in this thread! :msp_smile:

Correction, old friend! The Dolmar 420 isn't built like a homeowner class saw, yet it remains priced as one. Not Dolmar's fault that the competition overcharges for what they provide.

You will recall a post you made some time back where you stated that only Dolmars with 4-digit designation were "pro", and the rest with 3-digit designation were "homeowner" models.

In any event, the 420 most certainly is a 40cc class saw, and one of the best out there. Hardly irrelevant.
 
Without cat it should weigh the same as the 241.

7

cat weight 7 oz, so 10.8lbs =10lb 12oz minus 7 oz =10 lb 5 oz

killed my ms180 disposable, ms362 to heavy for saplings love the saw

3hp stock, maybe 3.5hp modded 10 lbs

couldnt find a better saw

Hi everyone,
I'm new to the site and am finding it very interesting. I'm learning a lot! Thanks!

I've used chainsaws for years, mostly for clearing brush down by the creek and for firewood. I recently tried the GreenWorks G-Max Electric Saw as recommended by a friend and was pleasantly surprised.

I've found the GW G-Max is the first cordless chainsaw I've used that feels like a "real" chainsaw. Up until now, the cordless models have been limited use tools, mostly made by Black and Decker.
