Brand new 044

[Trx250r180]

I've seen that pic many times but never asked. What the heck is that all about?

Were a bunch of china copy's that were destroyed so would not be sold .

Im back, refreshed after a nap
I may need a little alone time with those pics
Let me know when you have your best offer elsewhere, take your time there is a good deal to be made here for saws or cash or saws and cash.
I am a buyer and willing to spend strongly on this saw.
shh don't tell my wife

serial number is on the top of the saw on a small metal edge next to the muffler on the side where the bar attaches, affects value by 200-400 bucks in my mind

take the saw (not the box) out in the sunlight lay it down on a solid color blanket under a tree and give that beauty a photoshoot

I don't have a problem I can stop buying 1128 saws whenever I want....whenever I want....whenever I.....

Its a good sight seeing the old girl in that orange box. Ben awhile since most have done that. I kept my 1985 case of baseball cards unopened until about two years ago me and my brother opened them after McGwire's Olympic card and Dwight Gooden's rookie was worthless. Man that gum didn't taste right.

Thansk.

10 mm saw is a SN before 129585*** I think. If you post the first 6 of the SN, we will know. I'm going off the top of my head, but that is close.

I posted pics on page 6 it is new in box brand new and I don't know how it runs

What would be the serial number on your beautiful new saw.

I always like supporting fire fighters I am one my self

 

[MustangMike]

I thought it was needle in the haystack and diamond in the rough ?

Maybe thats a PA thing..i dunno.

Hey party popper, this find was too unusual to just use a standard quote! Besides, that saw looks more like a diamond than a needle to me.

i stihl have the box my first stihl came in. the ole 023. i think there's old beer bottles in it though.

Serial number is 13339788

 

[MustangMike]

You are missing a #, they are 9 digit. But if it starts 133, it is a 12 mm saw. Still a beautiful find.

 

[MustangMike]

Only the Chinese copies had 8 digits (Just kidding, Just kidding)!!!

 

[mv7fd]

Lol last digit is a 4. Sorry had to chase my kid around. So in assuming a 10mm is better than a 12?

It has a cult like following, I ran my Ms440 next to a 10mm and both running dual ports , mine was noticeably more peppy YMMV my compression is also 180 ish with the jug never being pulled and has no decomp

See I wasn't blowing smoke on this and I'm glad I got it someone tried to beat me out but they gotta remember these old guys still believe in Keeping there word

 

[Icehouse]

You done real good!

 

[mv7fd]

I even got the bar he ordered with it still in the box

 

[MustangMike]

Depends on who you talk to, but 10 mm saws do run strong. Nothing wrong with a 12 mm, and likely, that saw will never be run anyway.

The angle fin jugs (even on 12 mm) are also said to be strong runners, and if you pull the top cover (you likely don't want to), you may be able to tell who made the jug. There were various makers, there are threads on it.

I think one of the builders just built someone a like new MS 440 for about 2 large, and is is from parts, it is not an original saw.

You really got something there, I still can't get over the fact that the dealer did not know the worth of that saw. You just can't make this up.

Your hurting us, you really are!!! Nice, is it 20" or 24"? With your luck, it will be a 24" wide nose bar!
