I've just bought a 391 2017 model been used twice, saw was from a good friend off mine, bit to heavy for him to be fair, just fitted it with 16 inch bar and full chisel chain cuts really well.
COOL VIDEO! MY WIFE AND I ARE RETIRIN' TO OUR CABIN HIGH IN THE MOUNTAINS OF CHIHUAHUA MEXICO. I GOT A 391 CAUSE IT WAS THE BIGGEST I COULD FIND, TILL I FOUND A 500i. THEN I GOT THAT TOO, AND A 170. SO I THINK I'M SET. CAN'T WAIT TILL THE HOUSE SELLS SO I CAN GO AND RUN ALL MY NEW TOYS. THANX FOR LETTIN' ME SEE HOW SHE RUN, KEEP PUSHIN' ON PEACE...
Hello and Congrats on Retirement. You have purchased the best of the best of chainsaws I know the 391 and the 500 will do any job at hand but the 170 is just as tough it's big brothers LOL. Good luck when you hit the trail and Thanks for Watching
i have thr 391 and the 170. i use the 391 for larger jobs but i always switch to the 170 for limbing. I tried limbing with thr 391 and got tired quickly becuase the saw is heavy, 14 pounds. Love the 391 tho, 5 years now and zero issues.
Hello Stefan, the 170 is perfect for limbing and a really nice saw in genral as well as the 391 they make a good combo. Have a great day and Thanks for Watching
You ain’t a kidding. I have an MS 271 with a 16 inch bar, and I use my MS 180 every chance I can. I love those little saws so much I own two of them (180, and 180 C) same way with trimmers. I have a KM90R with the trimmer attachment and I just purchased a FS94R because it’s a little over 10 pounds. I’m not as young as I once was. Sounds like a Toby Keith song. 🤔
@@disgruntledconservativevet1798 i know what you mean, i just turned 44 and i cant manhandle a chanisaw anymore like i once could. gotta work smarter now....
Good Evening and Thank You. I am still getting used to the extra power the 391 has it cuts pretty fast and smooth. If you pick this saw I think you will like it. Thanks for Watching.
@Kevin DeLaune should last a long time. You can get them professionally sharpend for around 9 dollars or you can attempt to sharpen it yourself. As soon as you touch the ground the chain will be dull. Chainsaw is sweet though lots of power
@Kevin DeLaune personally I use a smaller 18 inch chainsaw or 14 inch chainsaw the most but take the big beast out for large trees. It is physically draining if using it for longer periods of time. Best of luck to you
@Kevin DeLaune the last chain I bought was made by Sthil and cost $34.00 however I am still using the chain that came with the 391 I am impressed with the quality of the saw and the chain. I hope this helps and Thanks for Watching
Good Morning Brian and I am still laughing😂. It is a good thing that milling the log takes a little longer LoL. Thanks for the humor and Thanks for Watching.
Thank You. I replaced the basket markers yesterday and played a few holes. I am looking forward to warm weather the plastic fly's better LOL. Thanks for Watching.
Stumbled upon your video while searching videos concerning my own MS391 I've had for 6-7 years. Great saw, has done much work on the ranch and for firewood, and I fully expect it to last well past my lifetime. It appears you've enough money for good tools Daddyjoe so please invest in a pair of chainsaw chaps and hearing protection. As I've always said to every member of the family for work or sport, "Protection is cheap insurance!". You straddling that trunk while limbing made me cringe. Surf "Chainsaw injuries" and you'll park the saw until you acquire the chaps.
Hello, the 391 is a great saw but the 362 has upgraded electronics and a couple of other upgrades that may interest you but both saws will get the job done. Have a great day and Thanks for Watching
@@lkjyuiop1987 I've run my 391 all day, many times. Never had a single problem. It's a really good saw. So, if all you can afford is a 391, I don't think you'll be disappointed
This saw works well for me and if your saw is new, it should get better after 10 or 12 tanks of fuel, and you have plenty of options to turn this saw up as well. Have a great day and Thanks for Watching
