We shared a similar STIHL Contra replica military chainsaw a couple of months ago, but this is another one from the same restorer, Alex (eBay seller szabsa76).
The last one sold very quickly, and I suspect this one will too. It’s an original STIHL Contra, but has been painted in military/army colors.
Genuine STIHL Contra military saws sell for $3000 – $4000, depending on the condition of the saw and accessories (including the box, which this one does not include).
The listing description on this saw says (translated to English):
Original STIHL Contra Restored in Military Colors
I am offering for sale the original military-style STIHL Contra chainsaw shown in the photos.
The chainsaw is in excellent mechanical condition and has good compression. The crankshaft seals, carburettor gaskets, fuel filter and fuel lines have all been replaced. It is fitted with a new .404 STIHL chain.
An excellent choice for collectors, vintage chainsaw enthusiasts or display purposes.
The military storage crate is not included.
Please feel free to contact me for further information or additional photos. No warranty or returns.
International shipping is available.
If you are located in Europe, please contact me, as I may be able to offer a discount on the shipping cost.
It’s listed for US $1,490.00.
