That is Really Sad, to have Never owned a 200 series Husky XP, it's no wonder you like Stihls, they're Not a BAD Saw, it's just that you don't know any better, we will try to show you the way to Happiness and fulfillment

I like dolmars more than anything. I wouldn't buy a 50cc class stihl. I would get a echo before i ever did. So i would buy a husky or dolmar for a 50cc if i got another saw in that class.
Haha. Those are rare out here but i want to try some. How is the name actually pronounced?
The Dolmar 5105 has a very nice motor. Above reproach, imo. But it doesn’t handle like a Husky, that’s for certain.
The second load of scrounge Wood out of the truck. Ill cut it up and deal with it later. Sometimes when you find the Forest Service stuff it's easier to just grab the logs then it is to cut them up. Nothing out here is on flat ground so carrying a 20 lb saw up and down a hillside isn't any fun a couple more sales that I can actually say my CAD has paid off.
I have to take the bar off of the dcs6421 I've had it on there since I was using it for Milling

Jon...se...red
Or Jon...sa...red
I like the straighter (meaning more square to the plane of the bar) than Husky’s top handle.
And the appearance. You can’t not like that.

I think Home Depot is renting those out too so that means that after 3 years they'll be selling them also will be interesting to see how much I think they just started to carry them they don't carry the dcs6421 in most places anymore they have switched to the 6100 p which I didn't really care for it was just as heavy but you can't upgrade the jug
The 6100 is a very fat saw.
The 5105 is also a fat saw
The 420 Dolly is a little pudgy for a 40cc saw, but it feels so good in the hands it doesn’t seem to matter.
Dolmar makes some fat saws.
You should run your 372 until you get familiar.
If your saws aren’t starting really well, a little tweak on the low screw should clear that right up.

Upgrade? Just because you can make it bigger doesn’t mean it is an upgrade. It just means it’s bigger.
I missed the 372 in your sig line, it SHOULD be at the TOP of the list, where it Belongs
In the "Scrounging Class size saws, the 346XP has an almost cult like following, I am Very Happy with my 353.
My Huskys have treated me wellso I have had no reason to go anywhere else, there is a Husky for any need I have, and I have a Good start, on having as many as I need, which I am almost there, but a 395XP would sure fit Nicely between the 266XP and the 3120XP. But I still want a 272XP, or 372XP, I hear Good things about those '72s.
Doug
They say the 7900 which weighs the same as the 6421 but is a whole nother animal. I think theres even a 89cc jug out there?
I used mine alot for milling actually.
Bigger is not necessarily better. Just different

Depends if you want jonsereds or just a red husky. One has an S at the end and one doesn't.
No doubt.Ported 7900 is always a good choice for scrounging firewood.
Or a red Partner..
Oh, the woeful tale of Jonsereds
