Love the ability to purchase and have it shipped to doorstep. Wish they offered Max Flow filters. West Coast products in my opinion are sub par cool guy stuff.

Great Experience on 500i
Mike was very helpful and prompt in answering all of my questions and the saw exceeded all expectations. Packaging was first class and the saw is awesome! Highly recommend 309 if you are looking for a ported saw.

A great saw
The stihl MS500 saw that I got from 309 machine exceeded every expectation that I had and wanted in a saw.
309 will be the only place that I'll buy any chainsaw from

4thgenfaller’s new 500i
My 5th 500i and by far the best! Very responsive, revs proper for limbing or brushing, snorts and growls at an idle and screams like hell in the cut! I cut old growth all day ground 3/8ths chain on a 36” bar she had power to spare, love it!
