Very unique saw you don't see these often, atleast I haven't. Price is a little high, but still a cool saw. Homelite XL Auto Rare with Chainbrake and Full Wrap Handle chainsaw | eBay www.ebay.com/itm/155371423743 |

I see quite a few chain brake units north of the border, and have struggled to sell a couple of mine for decent money. The wrap handle isn’t a Homelite handle. You can see the original mounting hole in the bottom photo and a screw added to hold it in place where the saw housing has a tapped hole behind the bar. It is a nice fit the the XL overall though. I think the price is sky high, but most of his saws start for nearly double what his prices end up at a couple months down the line.

I've seen a few examples of a person's creativity out of B.C. in grafting a full wrap handle bar off a Super XL-130 onto an XL-Auto. The results are good but the saw never came that way from factory. Skeptical that the chain brake is factory as well. Another example of the guy's creativity in B.C. of a grafted SXL-130 full wrap bar being resold by this seller. www.ebay.com/itm/155371814435Neither rare or factory...overpriced fakes! |

I never knew the XL130 wrap could fit an XL-12 model so well. I can't even get my hands on one for my XL-100s...
I came into a couple wrap handles, and used one on my XL-12. It was a perfect fit. I was told (and shown) that it was from a Pioneer, if I remember correctly.

I was told (and shown) that it was from a Pioneer, if I remember correctly. XL 100 full wraps are very hard to find. I managed to score one only by buying a 130 with a full wrap. I see them pop up on the Canadian West coast but it’s not very often. |
