    I should probably introduce myself

    Good luck with the DMV, out of the 3 states i have dealt with, IL was by far the worst to deal with... they will try and find any way to not have to do thier job... TN was easy peasy... in and out in 10 min flat, for an enhanced id and having just moved from NY... and that included talking...

    I should probably introduce myself

    Not trying to be mean, as i have been there myself being homeschooled from 4th- thru highschool.... but, welcome to adulthood. Time to get together with friends only happens when you make a serious effort to do so, and it only gets worse as you get older....

    Stihl MS261 or Wait For MS300

    I would dare say the 261s are already at the "whatevers left in the warehouse" status already....

    So what did you buy today

    Snap on used to make a decent locking flex....then they discontinued it for some reason...the original FX80 is what i have....and they still offer repair kits, as i just recently broke the lock mech, and had them send a replacement lock kit....

    So what did you buy today

    As someone who owns both (full time small engine mechanic) i would much prefer the snap on heads to the matco... crap...the matco locking 3/8 is the worst feeling ratchet head in my box, with snap on, kobalt, and even pittsburgh pro ahead of it... has too much drag that makes it hard to spin...

    Mix up a gal of real gas and decent oil.... trufuel is absolute garbage IMO, and have several saws that do NOT run on it at all...and not just stihl, but stihl, poulan, and husqvarna....

    So update on this....🤣 he finally brought it in, hes a bit advanced in years and his memory isnt as good as it used to be.... sadly it was not a colt, but a cobra .380... and sadly, he overpaid for it when he got it many moons ago... was wanting to get what he paid, which was $170.... while you...

    New Stihl ms 300

    In 10 years at a stihl shop, i have replaced many torn boots... out of all of them, only 1 mtronic saw had a piston worth running, (full disclosure, it was my ms661, and i immediately noticed the very slight rev hang and shut it down) because typically the piston was so scored that the saw...

    New Stihl ms 300

    To someone knowledgeable yes... to the knuckle dragging apes that climb trees, its a deteiment, because they will only bring the saw in when saw no worky... saw no worky from boot tear on a carbed saw is a new boot....on an mtron its a $4-500 repair by the time you jug and slug it because its...

    New Stihl ms 300

    500 isnt going anywhere any time soon.... dirty or not... they have enough "carbon credits" to keep the epa happy with both thier strato 2 stroke, 4 mix, and battery lines to offset a few non strato offerings like the 500 and ts910 and the like for a good long while...
