3210 has a screw like that . On mine replaced it wuith an aleen screw Only 395 has metal air box clips See pics . Its a dead ringer made from aftermarket parts but ...some how you can still tell . As has been said the grey parts are too black and the finish of the plastics are of a lower quality due to the cheaply made injection mold tools .

Yea I think it is serous . All the plastics and exhaust are dead ringers but look slightly like seconds . The engine is usually specified to run 25:1 mix which is a give away .

No the 3120 always had the big wing not clips.

Hi

 

If someone trys to sell you a saw outside your house, then I would consider its nicked or fake without going any further.

I bought a Husky 440 off e-bay tail end of last year, I'm pleased with it, but all this talk of copies has made me paranoid. It came in a husky box with all the papers from the US and seems to be the real deal, although was quite cheap off e-bay.....oh dear have i bought a dud, I'll check it tonight when i get home and report back.
