MS461 discontinued, MS400 cm listed with prices

[Nighthunter]

And I can pick it up for the same price as a regular version

Great, so by March or so I’ll have to buy a 462,572 for my desires, a ms241 for fear of it no longer being available, and possibly this 400 I’ve not heard of???

Lucky guy, to my knowledge those have never been available in North America.

+1. Interesting

I’ve known they are available in other markets but STIHL Canada has no interest in bringing them in.

I went with 261 bc it can do 241 and 362 work. Perfect compromise

This is the info being printed in Ohio.

Please make a picture from that and post it here

I'm picking 1 up soon with heated handles

And I can pick it up for the same price as a regular version

You and @AVAstihl should chat...

All my thoughts have been posted. Wonder if this is all across the US, or a regional thing? Also, with a 462 Rescue, the 461 can not be long for this world (IMO).

Maybe 241s just are not selling due to price competition. Darn good saws though, my brother loves his (won't even let me mod it, says he likes it quiet).

The 461 is going nowere, at least here in the nw. Spoke to high up's in stihl r&d team and the 461 has too good of following to seize production. Too many pro guys just wont switch to FI or m tronic. The 362 non cm and 261 non cm will be around for a few more years also. Eastern dealers might have a different story. Just like when i was a husqvarna dealer, they brought out the 372xpw for pnw exclusive. And the ms440 had a late re release here also

I hope so I want a PORTED 461 but can't do it for a couple of months .

A while back this summer I contacted Arrow Ace Hardware as they still had the 131 listed for sale on their website. I told them I didn’t like the updates on the 133 and would love to find a 131.
They spent a bunch of time tracking it down as it still showed in the system. When he was done he said he called the distributor and he said the computer was wrong and the distributor then told him to tell me if I could wait the 131 would be back. I think this was back in July or August.

What did you hate on the 133?

241's will be gone soon?

241's will be gone soon?

As I understand the rest of the US will still have 241, only the area serviced by Bryan Equipment will be SOL.

Yep MS261CM is the lightest rear handle saw I ever owned and its torque is surprising for a 50cc.

Now make that MS241 into a top handle saw and I'll be interested.

I don’t really see where this saw fits. Seems to be the same kind of relationship as the 365/372 which Stihl has never done to my limited knowledge.
