That is spelled wrong for a real cannon bar. That looks like an oregon or forester.

Its likely one of the Chinese made bars as sold by Forester or under the Stens name as "Silver Streak". I put one of those bars )Silver Streak)on my BIL's 039 and it seemed like a decent bar because he didn't want to spend much $, and he's a Stens dealer....made him pony up the $ for Carlton chain instead of Stens house brand. Home Depot was selling that chain with the tri-link logo and it stretches quickly.

Real Cannon bars, or Bailey's WP bars (made by Cannon) may be some of the best currently available.

Cannon bars are one of the best, so are the Tsumura bars. Solid made and heavy duty!

Those are a chinese knockoff of an oregon powermatch not a real Cannon bar

the fact that you say "Chinese" makes me want to stay well away from it. thanks
