Sold Husqvarna 272xp $290 OBO

[TRBenj]

I just picked this up in a package deal with another Husky for my brother in law... I'm half tempted to keep it, but it wouldn't fit in next to my Stihls.

Husqvarna 272xp power head. Very decent shape- see pics. Starts and runs excellent, both hot and cold. Blows 150psi compression. Revs up great. Will make someone a very nice saw.

As you can see in the pics, it is not mint- it doesn't appear to have been abused, but its certainly been used. Minor damage includes:

- small dent in muffler
- wear on chain cover
- stop switch has nub broken off
- one of the top cover screws spins freely

Other than that, its tip top. Asking $290, plus shipping. Please PM/email if you have any questions. Thanks!

Against my better judgement, I may also consider a trade for a 044.

Maybe a trade for an 038 mag?

70 cc saw for under $300?

How did it last over 24 hrs?

Tempting, but I'm less familiar with that era saw. I'd prefer a straight purchase, but an 044 might sway me.

Don't run it or you will start the migration to the dark side.

That saw was tempting. With a squish adjustment and a muffler mod, it would be a very nice firewood saw.

naw, i don't think that'll happen neil..
a couple of months ago we were cutting firewood together (oak).
i took along my masterminded 260 and 441mtronic, he had his 272xp, we cut for awhile, so i said, hey, ya wanna take this (441) for a test drive ??
i handed him my saw, he tried his best to stahl it......no go, she just kept eatin..
after a few cuts he handed it back and said, "does'nt that hurt em running with that much power ??

edit; btw, i was making 2+ cuts to his one......chains, maybe ?? but not all chain..

Reading between the lines, are you comparing a MM ported 441 with a sharp chain to a stock 272 with dull chain?

Very nice 272xp. I missed it and I'm sorry I did.

I bought a builder yesterday. I spent all day hunting parts as my work appointment cancelled. It really was kind of fun, I made some new friends, Ebay selling AS members and talked to a lot of members in the swap meet threads. Of course I bothered Nmurph too. Finding decent oem parts for saws this old is a challenge for sure.

Damn it, I missed it.

Griff if I'd have seen it first you'd have had no chance. lol
