  I know I should probably be asking my dealer, but what's up with the 192T ?  Is it just a stepped up 191 T?  I'm sorry guys. I'm a little slow on the latest and greatest.

The MS 192 T is a complete new design and nothing like the MS 191 T. It's lighter, better balanced and more compact. Internal engine design and filter system is also more robust.

If anyone has an interest in Solo's Top Handle saws, I have been running a Solo 633 and it is a pretty solid saw!

Is $$$ a serious factor  :o?  If so, do some research  :P.  The Echo 3400 that TM mentioned could be a real sleeper (most saw you can get for the least amount spent).  ,,,,,,,,Chris J.

Trying a couple of the Echo's 3400 series after owning Husky was a giant let down for me. Needed a limbing saw and could not keep either of them running in the field, vapor lock, new bar adjuster and start handle coming off was just too big of a pain for me!!!

Ended up with a Shindawia 377 with a narrow kerf bar and chain, starts real easy, and with the narrow setup cuts like a dream for a smaller saw. Even fell some over 20" cedars with it because I could.

I don't climb, but I'm tickled to death with my Echo 300.  I've had zero problems with it and it only cost $200.
