ms 192!!!!

[munkymadman]

i don't know how many of you guys use this on a professional level, but i bought one once upon a time in oz (for the third of the price of the ms 200t)so i could do a big weekend cash job. brought it home, and i seem to use it more than the ms 200t now. i think its awesome. very light with still very impressive power output. obviously in the case of cutting larger wood in a bigger take down the more powerful saw takes gold(still able for it though)

but for your thins, reductions and deadwoods, wins hands down IMO a must have. saves the shoulders

not that the 200 is heavy, but I really like the look of this saw...nice and nimble.

 

What sort of prices do they go for here?

about 300 quid on e bay new.my sister lives in idaho and is supposed to be getting her finger out to get me one and send it (£160 equivalent).perhaps we should set up an arbtalk lobby and pressure STIHL to sell them here.......but if we did i suppose they would be £400ish

Peter (18stoner) has one. With a muffler modification it's a good little saw

looking at the stats it isn't a million miles away from the 200... 5cc smaller engine with 0.3kw less power. Would be pretty nifty I reckon, anyone on here got one..?..use one..?

Just got one two weeks ago put a carving bar on it its a perfect small neat light saw but I still prefer the ms 200t for its power !

I have one, fantastic little saw, its on par with the 200t. I use't to have 2, 200t's one got pinches, so replaced it with 192, use it more than the 200 now.

Cant recommend it enough! It always goes in the truck to every job, if its a takedown, i throw the 200 in also

 

You now can buy a MS192 with back handle in UK now, but not the 192t.

 

I have found out through a good source in Sthil Germany, they will not release them through UK dealerships as it will reduce the revenue they recieve from avid 200t users.

They are available off the shelf here in Ireland at around 400 euro, found running it with a 12" bar made it a great saw although they don't cut as fast as 200t. At the last APF I was told by Sthil staff that they would not bring them into UK because of the affect on 200t sales !

how can any saw that needs a muffler mod be a good saw
