Added a Stihl MS661 C-M to the saw herd.

My 046 was my biggest saw and I've been wanting this one for a while, so why not. It's pouring outside, so yeah, living room floor picture.

That is the one with the quick stop lever on the back? I have a 361 with the quick stop and it's the best feature to be put on a chain saw in the last 50 years. I will never buy another saw without it.

Very nice saw saw you got there....

You mean the redesigned on/off switch?

No it's a lever on the handle that once released, instantly stops the chain. I guess it needs the "Q" in the features to denote the quick stop.

Very nice. Can't wait for some action pics.

Ohh, hadn't heard of it.

Nice saw. I've been wanting a 661 but don't have the need. I'm gonna try to hold out for the MS462 with fuel injection.

Ohh, hadn't heard of it.

Those saws are easily identified by a rear handle. There is a large peice that sticks up that you have to depress for the brake to go off.
