Cool, so it was the 371 that replaced the 272 or did they overlap? Just using your keen memory to help my foggy one. Heh I am from BC. Your info is always appreciated.

I switched later than that, mid 90's sometime I believe. If memory serves it was when the 272 was changed up to a 372 I thought? One of the issues they had was those clips for the toolless air filter access were breaking like it was going out of style. Minor I know, but a real nuisance.

When they switched those models up is when I switched to Stihl. It was not a smooth transition imo and those first 3 series had issues. I ran up what I had left of the old(er) Huskys and than made the switch and have never looked back.

Yah I'm interested in knowing what you meant too? Imo, and the opinion of my hands saws have come along ways in anti-vibe/ergonomics. A big help for me was the larger diameter handlebars. The new 'spring' anti-vibes are way smoother feeling to me than the older rubber mounts. Opposite of Al...

And before you know it your trigger finger will go numb if you put it to work to much. Lol. The anti-vibe leaves something to be desired on the 272 imo, they ought to sell it with heli-coils it shakes and rattles so damn bad. Sounds like a good score though.
