    Seems to be a lot of love for the 4910. I've never ran one. If their like the 590/620 series Echo saws, small mods = big returns.

    Yes sir, unless it's some big timber or really dirty logs/cutting trees from stumps on blow downs, got a couple 3/8 semi-chisel chains for that

    Currently my main 2 saws, when I want to git er done, is the XS2511p and the XS241. Of course I like to mix in my vintage saws here n there on occasion. The future Echo XS4310SX might just displace the 241 for my "big" saw. Well, it will be sharing that spot anyway.

    I've had a CS-620P (24" bar) for close to two years. It's my primary saw and totally stock. This weekend, it cut a pile of big wood on one tank of gas. There are a good bunch of awesome Husqvarna's & Stihl's that will cut faster & more, but none that cost less than $650 out the door!!! I can't wait to see what a CS-4910 will do once broken in. I'm sure it'll be great to have an easy starting, light, inexpensive saw for much of my cutting
