It comes with .043 LP 3/8" 56 DL. All my other 16" saws use .050 3/8" 60DL. I know it uses an Oregon bar OEM so in theory, I should be able to find the bar easily. Anyone know what sprocket it uses?

I have honestly been shopping for well over a year. Craigslist has left me with very little confidence in my fellow man. Found a killer deal on a 2019 Pioneer at a local stealership and pulled the trigger. Dump bed, power steering. I have a OEM roof and windshield on order. It will be used to...

Nothing showing up on HLS supply or Amazon. Not wanting to pay OEM price. Options?

Looking for a coil assembly, muffler, air filter, plug and fuel filter. Can anyone point me to a good online store for OEM parts?

My MMWS 462c running full throttle w/20" bar buried in oak will constantly fight with the rev limiter. Is this bad for the engine?

Been shopping for a tiny saw. Primary job will be a live aboard on ATV & tractor. Occasional limbing duties. 12" bar. Ready to cut used top handles are tough to find around here under $200. Can I buy a brand new MS170 from northern fool and put a 12" bar on it? I see them for under $200. I...

I love American history and power saws so this book is right up my alley. Tried to link it but no bueno. It's on Amazon. Legacies are not easily built. They take dedicated individuals who are willing to risk everything, work hard, and be examples of excellence. The eclectic group of pioneers...

Once sharpened Oregon semi chisel. Fooked by a marble sized rock under the bark of a walnut. Gonna take some work to get it back in action.

Top cover "fins". Not my saw or pic. OEM or AM? First time I've even seen that style.

Beautiful morning. Gonna be some monsters taken today.

MS261 C 16" Stihl E Bar 3/8 .050 Oregon semi chisel. All in nearly new shape. Maybe 20 tanks on the pair. Using green bottle box store bar oil. It can be seen flying off the tip on cardboard. Definitely getting oil to the bar. When I'm felling, using the dawgs and applying pressure, smoke comes...

After reading horror stories of Stihl silver bottle oil, I've sworn off Stihl oil. Life is too short to worry about crap oil in my $1000+ saw. I just bought a quart of royal purple 2C. Now I need a good way to measure it. I normally use 40:1. What type of measuring cup is preferred? Amazon has...

Has anyone ever run into the situation of a factory warranty claim on a ported saw? I'm guessing that a porting job immediately voids the warranty, so on a new saw, no reason to send in the registration? Or...do the warranty repair guys not even bother to look inside? How about a muffler mod...

Learn how to plunge cut son!

How do I know if my 261cm uses the idle only reset or the idle/piss rev reset? Bought it used, no manual.

Hard to find good help these days.

Has compression & spark. Gear drive is smooth. The prior owner said it ran when put up 20 years ago. Recoil assembly needs attention. I'm gonna give it a shot. Can anyone tell me engine size, correct fuel mix, source for air filter, year made etc? I may swap it to mTronic. ;-)

Excellent condition. All stock. 20" ES, .050, 3/8. Runs and cuts great. 2nd owner. Always used Non E fuel @ 40:1. Low use, never abused. $550. Prefer a local deal in Central NC, but will ship if buyer pays for pro packing at ups store.

I often carry semi chisel, full chisel, skip, 72/84 DL chains when I head into the woods. I like to use the right chain type for the job at hand. I suck at getting loops straight. No patience for it. Coiling the chains isn't an option for me. I cringe when the cutters touch anything other than...
