About 3 yrs ago my holy grail list included a Stihl 090,Pioneer P62,Poulan 5200,Homie 750,Mac CP125 & 99 with a Homie 3100G at the top of the list.

Gradually with luck,much patience,watching various places & a couple great contacts in Nor Cal & Southern Oregon keeping me informed since then I've gotten every one.:rock:DSC02633.JPG DSC00302.JPG DSC00222.JPG DSC00224.JPG DSC00137.JPG homie 750 large honey locust apr 2016 001.jpg DSC01473.JPG DSC01485.JPG
 
Neighbor came over; he's been bugging me for a 6 cube Stihl so I pulled some off the shelf for him to look at. I also had a few others pulled out so figured it would make a good photo op. There's an 084, 066, 076, Contra S, Contra, 070, Solo Twin, Mac SP125, and Dolmar 166. Think a rotary saw snuck in the picture, too.

Not quite Scott. Although i'm very happy with what saws I have accumulated over the years
there are still a few missing blanks. Some haven't been a priority. The 070 and Contra I do
not have yet. I do have a Contra S but it needs a bit of work. Two saws that I would really
like to find are a Solo Super Rex, a Remington Super 880 and Super 880G. I wouldn't mind
a Contra GS either but i'm sure i'd never be able afford one.
 
Lee -

I'll be back in the states (Norfolk, VA) for a 10 week course starting on Wednesday. After that, I'm back in Italy 3 months before I move to San Antonio for my next assignment. We can easily find you a nice Contra. Solo Rex's are easy to find, too, and reasonably priced as well. I don't run across many Super Rex's, but I haven't been looking. I suspect we can find one of those, too.

Good luck on the Contra GS. Not easy to find.
