I picked this up today for cheap. Hardly used Poulan 2300 cva. Everything looks new minus the gas line. It is cracked in two spots. Compression is 135-40.

I like it. Heck it even came with a case. Nothing wrong with some green in your diet.

Nope nothing wrong with green in your diet. You can even try the yellow version of that veggie. It tastes good too!!

Wow! Nice score

SilverKing · Oct 28, 2012

Nice little saw,one of first saws was a 2300.Sure beats spinach

procarbine2k1 · Oct 28, 2012

Those are fine little saws. Just had two in the shop, one is still here awaiting pickup. Good runners, probably one of the better saws you can buy on the cheap on Ebay and or CL.

Nice find, those are light little rippers!

R2D · Oct 28, 2012

It was found in the north suburbs of Chicago on CL. I offered $5 more than the next guy :msp_biggrin:

I watch the Chicago C/L now and again but its not the mecca of chainsaws, glad you got that nice one picked up and I assume your not far from the north burbs.

It would take a pretty good saw for me to hit the north burbs for one as I would have to drive through Chicago twice and I would rather take a beating most the time then do that.

I avoid going into the city at all costs. I drive around it when I go south and I am right at the lakefront! This saw was less than 5 minutes from a house I was working at today. Other good saws I have picked up on CL were west suburbs and Wisconsin border. I drove an hour and 45 for 090 once and I picked up my 064 in route to a vacation destination :msp_w00t: But nothing inside the city.

R2D, that's a really nice find, congrats :msp_thumbup:!

My second Craftsman rear-handle version of the Poulan 2300CVA is in route, I already know it's not as nearly as clean your find.

Nice little CVA Mike. What a great limbing saw those are. A lot of snort for their size. I have two of those, a 2300 cv, a micro and two s25da's. I think. :rock:

Hey Chris. What do you think of the 2300cva compared to the s25da?

There are some slight blemishes but close to NOS.

There's a lot of different colors of those. One of mine is a yellow skil branded one. The s25 has a little more grunt but the CVA is certainly smoother. There's so many different variants of those little saws that I can't keep track of them all. When I get a new one I just post a pic and let the guys tell me what it is. :cool2:

PP 445. I believe it is around 70.7cc.

R2D · Nov 1, 2012

RED? Sears craftsman.

Guess its a little different than a 2300cva. Which model Poulan is this?
