I have a friend here that is trying to collect one of every stihl made..

It might get kinda costly but he is building quite a pile.

maybe I should not show him this list. :D

If you went to waynes museum you could add a few more to.

He has an 041 type saw but the number on it is 70 av. its a rare one.

also a few to note in early models is the BL one man. then the BKL BLK 57 and BLK 58 . these were also called the "blitz" in the usa.

the first 106cc direct drive was the contra lightning. this can be confusing because the lightning name was more for US and contra was for Europe but the tops were either contra or lightning or contra lightning. But still the same saw under the lid.

In 1964 the contra lightning S was introduced with 137cc. along with the av versions of each and also the gear driven versions of each G and GS.

contra lightning 1959
contra lightning av 106cc
contra lightning S AV 137cc
contra lightning G 106cc
contra lightning GS 137cc

in 1968 the name was changed to the numbers

070 also called lightning briefly
070AV 106cc
090 137cc
090AV 137cc
090 G 106cc
090 R another av

That ad must be from about 1984, because the 084 came out in 1985. I never knew that the 034 was made back then I always though it was a newer model.
 
Assumeing you only wanted the "0" models and prior??? I added a few that were missed.

Is there a reason why this list doesn't draw a distinction between the "PRO" series saws (026, 036, etc) and their non-"PRO" counterparts?

Yes, b/c I don't have the info to distinguish between pro and non-pro. It would be a nice addition to the list if you want to volunteer that info.

This is your thread, and its cool. But can we get all the MS saws added and have a complete list, even the ones we can't get in the states?

Your doing good there. Brad has one helluva good memory. He listed off a bunch. I got a list here and counting it there were 94 different models before they went over to using the MS logo.

There were both top and rear handled S 10s. The top handle version is the most rare. I just picked up my second one.

I left out one saw on purpose, $10.00 says Hoss will spot the missing saw!!!
 
That ad must be from about 1984, because the 084 came out in 1985. I never knew that the 034 was made back then I always though it was a newer model.


yes, that ad is from 84 but there is still another version of the 090av that has a different AV system. side connector instead of top.
Most probably later than 84 but I have not found any sales info for this model yet.

As you can see from that ad there were many versions that overlaped one way or another in production years.

To build an all inclusive list of stihl chainsaw production numbers is quite an undertaking.

carry on :kilt: :)

Shop a little slow today? Selling any BR600's as improvised snowblowers?
 
Just had a quick look through and did'nt see KS 43, BDKH, BBU, 1929 petrol engine two man saw, 1926 electric two man saw, E 30 and the other electric saw's.

Slow isn't the word, more like dead. Did sell 2 600's end of last week for snow but the snow we got no back pack is going to mess with, dayumm stuff is 30 inches deep and heavy. Suppose to get another 10-12 tonight. Old man winter is giving Va a fit this year..
 
The list as it sits now. Is the list of saws with and without AV correct?
