So...can I ask for choosing help? I know I want a ported saw, but have one of mine ported, or get one...? Oi...I never eve paid attention to the list before, haha. I was just trying to help a feller out.

What size wood do you mostly cut? You seem to have lots of smaller saws in your signature. Is 50cc your sweet spot? There are two that really stand out to me for you:

2) Mastermind ported Husqvarna 346 XP OE from @Troylee

15) Mastermind ported Dolmar PS-6100 from @Adirondackstihl

346 is a legendary small saw and it has been exceptionally well done. I would guess a value at about $1000

6100 seems to be the current king of the 60cc segment. New ported could probably be had for about $900

While we're waitin, @Onan18 can you just zap the claimed prizes from the list? (vs. marking them claimed) might help with efficiency.
Have to be careful: the prize numbers are changing as items are deleted from the list. Your #52 might end up being #47!

Kinda been wanting to try a Stihl just cuz I've never had or run one. I like Jreds and Dolmars are red and have a good rep.

I mostly do trimming and dead removals around town. My small saws have that covered, but then there's lots of big Euc in the country and my 395 has that. Actually been thinking a 3120 would be best if I get into those...

Nah, a ported 395 can handle about anything.

You wouldn't go wrong with @Canadian farm boy 034/036 hybrid.
He builds a mean saw.

Send that 395 off to get ported.

That' what I would do if it was me.
