I picked up an older 16" stihl bar and it had this Stihl chain on it.
Its a different chain than anything currently offered by Stihl and I am not familiar with the ways they have changed the chains over the generations but I will assume it's older based on the age of the bar it came with.
It's got very obvious triple bump tie bars like an RDR chain but it's not carbide and its a green chain while the RDR is a yellow chain.
It's also a 325 chain while the RDR is only offered in standard 3/8.
Is this just the older version of what's now known as RM3 and the RDR was never updated to the newer single hump drive links of the current RM3 and RS3?
