    That to me seems like a good deal. Not sure if I am correct in thinking that.

    Being more of a Stihl guy I know that a saw of that caliber in orange and white is way more than that. I have 3 Huskys now the latest being a 550xp and have nothing bad to say about them. If I needed another saw I would be all over this thing. Good thing I don't live closer or it might be hard to say no.

    I could ask around and see if we can find someone close to Bowie MD that could help with that. I cover a shop for work in Gaithersburg, which is about 40 minutes from there.

    That's very generous! I don't want anyone to go to much effort. I've just started looking and can wait for something closer (not that I like waiting).

    Well I tried the local Stihl and Husky dealers last night. No pro saws to be found. Actual stocking dealer about 20 miles away wants $1069 for a 372xp with b&c. Yikes! I guess patience is my only option.

    Not quite 70cc, but I have a Makita 6421 that may be going with to to Dennis's GTG in Michigan next week. Seems to run well but I have no need for it, $225.00

    Sounds good to me Kevin. This will give you a chance to look it over first, 20" bar.

    I really like my MS461. It was a darn nice saw stock and amazing after a trip to Mastermind Randy Evans. Lots of people say the MS461 is the best saw Stihl ever made. Pay no attention to the fuggly Maxflow air filter, but do notice that I was using a 32" bar with full comp chain to fell this oak. MS461_Cropped.jpg

    Hello. I have a lightly used Makita 7900 I'm thinking of listing here. I bought it new about 8 months ago. Let me know if you are interested. Thanks. Steve.

    I appreciate you letting me know! I bought 2 Husqvarna pro saws. That doesn't necessarily mean I won't look... Please post! I'm sure somebody on here will be interested.
