Would it surprise you if I say I paid $15 for the 48" bar. E099 mount but I thought it would make a nice wall hanger. The guy had three skids of bars he bought at a bankruptcy sale in 1972 or 3 I think. They were destined to go to Africa but the buyer never sent the money so they sat forgotten in his warehouse until a year or so ago.
Most of the bars were hard nose in Stihl and PM Canadien mounts. I think most were 20 and 24" bars. The roller nose bars are a 10 series MAC mount but can be converted to others. The steel is very, very hard.
Tim that sucks, you hit the Holy Grail on that find. Cudo's to ya., l guess if l need a bar your the man to contact.
That bar with a chain would do a excellant job at Flaing the stinky muskie
