I'm guessing mid 1990's model. Great saw. An opened up muffler did wonders for these. I've owned a handful of this particular saw over the years. All seemed like very good runners to me.

I was sure I was done buying saws and ended up picking up a lightly used 400c. Put a 20" Tsumara Light bar on it and I am impressed with power and weight. It's all I've ran the last couple of days cutting. I have a few ported saws, but I think this one will stay a stocker.

Aww mannnn, I should have thought of taking some pictures... I tossed the chain in my metal recycling bin for the chopper. I'll go out and look now to see if I still have it. Stuck at home with covid for a few days. Edit: Just looked. Bin is almost empty. I must have recycled after I tossed...

I've been running the C83 Full Chisel a little while now. I like the chain but it doesn't seem very durable with my "big" saw. I've sheared off a few cutters in dry standing White ash and Rock Maple. The teeth were ground down to about 1/2 original length and the "big" saw is a monkeyed 500i...

Uh Oh... I've been running 2 stroke equipment dry before storage since 1995. Now I've got a new worry to put in my worry box. Guess another worry has got to go until I get this one sorted out!

These saws are runners!

Great looking saw! I have a bananafied 026 and 261. The 026 hangs right in there and is a tad more nimble. My son prefers it over the 261. Special trigger lock mod on that saw?

I'm not worried one bit. It was meant as a little ribbing. Glad the saw sold. I'll quit looking at it now!

I've got a friend who asked about this size saw in a ported version. I've sent him a couple of pictures and have texted him twice about this one. I even told him it was buy a reputable builder. (was I stretching the truth a tad or a bunch?) No go yet. I'll keep bugging him about it until he...

I like Schaeffer's 9000 Full Synthetic at 40:1 because it's a pretty blue color when mixed up. Is that a good enough reason?

I must have gotten a good one. It's the saw in my avatar sporting a 32" bar. I have since sold it to a friend. He's been enjoying it the last few years.

I can tell you a 441 Regular ole carb version will pull a 32" bar with full comp chain just fine. Did it for years and years mostly in Oak. The 441 is also a fuel sipper. A ported 500i guzzles fuel and is LOUD. Has plenty of get up and go. I do like it for a felling saw. Can't help you with...

I had a good feeling about this, but just checked. Don't have a set. Just the 1122 664 0505. Looks to be new. I can send a couple of pics if you want to at least take a gander.

Going okay Randy. Recent knee surgery and bow season. Tough combo. Was able to mow grass a little today. Would really like to get in a tree stand by the end of the week. How about you and the Mrs?

That's exactly what I think every time I see this thread. My mom has wiped my smile off my face a few times and that was very uncomfortable! This would have to be worse!!
