    This came in the mail a week or so ago, I had a 25" Stihl bar so that's what it's wearing right now, I also have a 32" bar. I still need to hang up my FHC sign.

    You dont need that old dirty smoky saw. Let me sent you $100 plus shipping and just send it my way and I will part that worthless saw out for you.

    That looks like a nice one! How does it balance with the 25"? My MS460 is a little nose-heavy wearing 28".

    Nice saw!! That is a good looker and runner! I've ran that saw before and it's a great example of an early 046!

    The 28" ES Light is a perfect fit for this saw. It's lighter than a standard 20" ES bar and gives you a nominal reach. The 32" light would be about the equivalent of a 25" Standard bar.
