Beautiful saw, great condition, looking forward to seeing it at GTG. I don't think that SN is a 10 mm, but that does not mean it will not run great. I've seen people state their 12 mm ran just as strong as a 10. It is a nice looking saw, enjoy!

Now can I please enjoy my nice score.
That's a good one!!!! It may be a 10MM wristpin saw if the serial number is prior to 29 382 283 if so it will have a 10mm piston pin

Mine starts with 131 and has 6 more digits after that, so that would make it a 12mm?
Actually you can tell the difference,,,,,Yes. Back in the day we considered the 12mm the better saws. Then Gasoline Gary went and posted that his 10mm ran better and started a craze. I doubt that you could tell the difference, unless you use one on a logging deck all day like he does.
Mustangmike, I've been told the 10's have slanted cylinder fins. If so, is that true for all 10's and not 12's? I'm in the market for a clean 044/10mm.I am very impressed with the way my 10 mm saw runs, and have never had a problem with it. I agree that the difference in performance was likely due to the many changes in cylinder that occurred, and perhaps also the flywheel. While the 12 mm may be stronger, there are a lot of 10s out there that have never failed.
Did you win it.I think I just pulled the trigger and won on a 10 mm 044. The wife is going to kill me!
I missed one last week on 2 power heads that needed minor work, an 044 and a 440, but the 044 was not a 10 mm. This one is a 10 mm, and is complete, and even wears a like new 24" bar. Last week I hesitated on accepting a counter offer, and someone else went for it.
Buy Honey, you don't understand ... it's a 10 mm!!!!!
