The Stihl MSE 190 C-B Chainsaw was first introduced by Stihl in 2013 as an upgraded version of the MSE 190. The main difference between the two models is that the MSE 190 C-B features an additional chain brake and a QuickStop Super feature, which stops the chain within a fraction of a second of the trigger being released. This helps to enhance the saw’s safety and improve its efficiency. The MSE 190 C-B also has a more powerful motor, and is designed to be more comfortable to use for extended periods of time.
