Amazon.com Product Description
The GMC LS5000MAG 7.25-Inch Circular Saw with Redeye is best described as the world's most advanced circular saw. The upper blade guard, lower blade guard, and gear box on the LS5000MAG are constructed of magnesium alloy for superior strength, lighter weight, and increased durability. The use of magnesium alloy reduces the weight by up to 20-percent compared to standard 7.25-inch circular saws. Reduced weight ensures greater user comfort, easier control, and improved maneuverability.



The LS5000MAG circular saw uses Redeye Laser Line Generator for improved cutting vision, faster set-up, increased accuracy, and safer operation.

Built with GMC's Redeye Laser Line Generator, this saw delivers improved cutting vision, faster set-up, increased accuracy, and safer operation. The powerful 2250-watt motor tackles tough jobs with ease, and the 5000 RPM (revolutions per minute) speed provides a fast blade spin for smooth cutting action. For greater versatility, this saw is designed with an adjustable depth of cut (0 to 60 millimeters) at 90-degrees to allow cutting of even the thickest of material, and the bevel adjustment moves from 0-to-56-degrees for easy angled cutting. This saw also features a handy rear depth adjustment for even greater convenience and a quick selection of depth. And once you have your depth and angle set, a click of the laser activation button with rubber inserts will offer up a straight line to follow as you make your cuts. The saw also features a spindle lock button that allows for quick and easy blade change, rubber grip front and rear handles for greater control, and a dust extraction facility that ensures a cleaner and safer work environment.

About GMC Magnesium
With a continuous thirst for innovation, GMC invests heavily in research and design and has kept a close watch on innovations in non-powertool industries, such as aerospace and sporting goods. As a result, its tools feature design elements that reflect changes in those industries' various material developments. For instance, GMC tools have benefited enormously from the use of magnesium in their design.

So what's so special about magnesium? It's simple: magnesium is lighter, stronger, and more durable. In fact, it is the lightest of the structural metals -- 75-percent lighter than steel, 50-percent lighter than titanium, and 32-percent lighter than aluminum. Many power tools on the market feature extensive use of aluminum, which can make them heavy to hold over extended periods of use. Unlike aluminum, magnesium components are lighter weight, and therefore reduce user fatigue and increase safety. Magnesium offers superior strength compared to other materials commonly used in the manufacturing process. This superior strength helps increase the durability and life of your tool for a longer period of time under rigid and frequent use.

About Redeye Laser Guidance System
Designed for the serious do-it-yourselfer, the Redeye range includes jigsaws, circular saws, miter saws, tile cutting saws, table saws, band saws, scroll saws, hammerdrills, and drill presses. Each Redeye equipped tool features a laser line generator incorporated into the product to provide unparalleled accuracy, faster set-up, and improved safety. The laser line generates a narrow beam of pure red light to provide an exact straight guide line that allows for the more accurate cuts and superior finishes. This laser guide is clearly visible and, unlike a pencil mark, it is never obscured by sawdust or debris. You can clearly see the laser line while you're standing upright, keeping your face well away from sawdust and wood chips. With Redeye on your side, not only will you be more efficient, but you'll also minimize your risk of injury.

5 out of 5 stars Great for the price!   January 11, 2008
I've only use this occasionally, but the few times that i have, it has worked great! It cuts smoothly and quickly. Also, the laser makes the cuts accurate. The case is also very handy in storage.


4 out of 5 stars Excellent performance for price, when on sale   September 9, 2007
I bought this on sale from Amazon, based on the reviews. I have been trying to buy more quality tools lately, like Bosch and DeWalt, etc.... I decided on an "off" brand like GMC for my circular saw because it is not a tool I use much and I could not justify spending big bucks as a result. I have to say that this saw is much more than I expected. It is relatively quiet, very smooth, light for its strength and handles well. I'm not sure I would pay $100 for it, when Porter Cable is close to that in price, but for the $50 or so I paid it is a bargain.


5 out of 5 stars Can't beat it for the price   September 7, 2007
For the price it's a great saw. Feels solid. Cuts fine. The laser is a nice touch.


5 out of 5 stars A Great Find and Buy   July 4, 2007
I haven't heard of GMC tools before so I did a little research and found them to be a reputable company from Down Under. Anyhow, I couldn't lose as the saw was less than $50 at the time so I bought it. I am very impressed!! It came in its own nice black plastic case and it is built with integrity using lightweight magnesium, just like professional SLR cameras built for tough use but lightweight. The laser follows the cutting line to the left of the blade. I equipped it with a Marathon 40-tooth blade and it cuts like a pro. I would've bought this saw for more money as it is well worth it. I would not hesitate to buy another GMC product.


4 out of 5 stars GREAT STUFF!!!   June 27, 2007
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I own all the GMC tools and all of them have been purchased from Amazon. Great quality, rudged constuction, superb performance; however all they feel as heavy as their conterparts from other top brands (DeWalt, Makita, Milwaukee, Bosch)even though they are made from some kind of aluminum alloy. So far, I give 4 stars. Durability and dependability will be evaluated from now on.
