Wanted: long Homelite bar

[Stumper]

Does anyone have a good Homelite/old Jonsered/Pioneer mount bar in the 28-42 inch range (32"-36" prefered)that they would like to sell? Oregon's number for this tail pattern is D0196 but they currently only have it in lengths up to 20 inches.

Mike, Sounds good if it is the fat-tail bar.-As you no doubt know-lots of Pioneers used differing tail patterns-the 6900,7700, 8500 used the Homelite tail. I need to verify that I can get a 3/8ths sprocket for the Alpina-NPA (Herr) catalogs it but I need to order and confirm it is in stock.

I just realized that the chart I was using is a bit goofy-those are Poulan Pro model numbers. The P-series Pioneers used D007 bars with a potential crossover to D196. The Old Jonseys used D024 with crossover to D196. The bottom line is- I need a bar with 9.5mm (3/8th s inch) slot and a fat tail-I could open up a D009 (Large Husky) bar but the saw's oiler hole is too high-it is bisected by the upper bar rails.
