Hey Studs,
Bought this 261c about a yr ago for a little over a $100.
The saw was exceptionally clean although the bar & chain was greater rougher than a night in jail, so I bought a new 16 inch bar & square chisel-chain.
Never ran it much till this past few days...BUT boy does this rascal sling the chips and zips through the hardest of wood(locust, hickory white oak) like so much confetti!!
I am really surprised at the performance and guts this saw has.
I thought it might be a bit quicker than my 026's, but its not even close!
I'm almost convinced that I could slam a 20 inch bar on it & run semi-skip with my .325 set up and get through "most" big wood!
How many of you guys own a 261c and what is your experience/thoughts on this saw?
Btw...my 1st saw was new Poulan Pro PP5020AV a 50cc saw, and I believe the 261c would run circles around it!!
Excuse the sorry pics...
