Any bulletproof newer Pro saws out there?

[wde_1978]

I'm looking for some unscientific feedback on the RELIABILITY of any/all newer (let's say 2010 and newer) mostly pro series saws.

I actually can't even reply to this topic...

Dolmar PS-7900 / 2003. - issue free - but doesn't qualify
Dolmar PS-6400 / 2001. - carbon scored piston & piston ring which I replaced recently - but doesn't qualify
Sachs-Dolmar 108 / 1986. - blew her muffler gasket which got replaced - but doesn't qualify
Sachs-Dolmar 105 / 1986. - clutch drum worn, clutch weight broke, piston ring worn thin and some carbon scoring on P&C, fixing her up slowly - but doesn't qualify

I don't have any never saws and all things considered I am glad as that means those saws I own are reliable!

Was looking at a 357xp couple years back but let it go.
Haven't seen anything since.

I have a new one, pm me if you're interested.

MS 461 ,had it about 3 years still working fine.

One of the best "bullet proof" saws out there. Simple design, lots of power, rock solid performance.

I have an old 046 also and that thing runs real good.

I just bought a second 046 from a member here. But then I'm not a badass faller better than than everyone and never threatened to knock anyone's teeth out or used meth either.

Thanks for the offer ... I have a Makita EA4300 on order that I have yet to pay for and am waiting for some resolution on my 562, so it's too early for me to look at another saw right now. I appreciate the heads up!

Bulletproof? You logging in a war zone?

yes ... dirt, dust, heat, cold, rocks, sun, rain, snow, all things moving parts hate.
