I have an old Titan "Sportsman" saw that hasn't been run in years. I just got the saw from my grandpa not that long ago, and was asking my dad if he knew anything about it, but all he knew was that it had never been running in any of the time he had been around it. I'm planning on getting the saw cleaned up and running sometime, but thought you all might like to see pictures of the old monster.

The second picture is of my dad's Sears Lightweight Sportster saw. In all the time that we've had it, its been an absolutely trouble-free machine- just grab it off the shelf, fire 'im up, and start cuttin'. I need the rear handle/carb. chamber/oil tank assembly for that one to get it all fixed back up. I'd weld it back together, but that handle assembly is all pot metal which is/can be a real pain in the pants to weld (even with a TIG). Otherwise its an awesome saw.

And of course, you can't beat the Stihl 020AVP for size, weight, and performance (for its size class). Great saw, I love it to pieces. Hasn't failed me yet (except the one time the chain oiler ran out of oil and trashed an already junk chain, but I've fixed that problem since then). My only questions are: Where is the serial number on this saw? and About how many rear handle 020AVPs were made?
