The small 16" Stihl.
I got a bigger one, but that one does everything, and is very lw. Great chainsaw. This is a great tool to have. |

M18 Saw
Make sure to get the 12.0 battery for that extra juice |

Quoted: Top handle Stihl. Easy to use one handed. https://www.AR15.Com/media/mediaFiles/185965/20200921_174421_jpg-1640664.JPG View Quote I'm liking this option, but I'm not sure such a small blade is going to stop a determined attacker. I think that the 47" model might have better stopping power. |

One of these or a two man.

At the risk of hijacking my own thread, I just found a CCW option

Chainsaws would suck for H/D.
Just add 20lbs of stuff to your AR and call it good. |

OP, for inside the house you want propane or electric. If you already have battery operated tools you're happy w/, just go w/ that line of battery chainsaw, that way you'll always have charged batteries on hand. Just grab a fresh one from the charger and that should be good for a brace of burglars.
Now a propane one, that would be pretty sweet. The issue is always the oil leaking all over the place. |

Quoted: I'm a little hesitant to trust my life on a battery. Am I being irrational? View Quote Frankly, I’d be more hesitant about “trust[ing] my life” on being able to pull start a chainsaw in-time to stop a threat. ZOMBIES! Prime 10x, set choke, depress safety and squeeze throttle, pull 2X, adjust choke.....THEN brains, brains, I should have used my brains |
