What's up with the 193?

Anyone have a 193 yet? I've held one and they are heavier than a 192 but that's all I know. Anyone have any experience good or bad?

I just bought one last week to replace the old 192 that I burned up after 3 years of hard use. For the most part its comparable to the 192. The only thing that I see that is different is that it has a fixed bar nut that is the size of a Husky or Echo bar nut. Its not broken in just yet and I still need to pull the spark arrestor. I live at 5,000 feet in elevation so some power loss is gonna be expected.

It is a good saw, just not the power I need for big removals. I think its gonna get handed down to my girlfriend when I upgrade to the 201tc.

Brad did a good review. My neighbor just bought one despite my urging to get a new mtronic 201. He seems happy with it.
