    Minelab Manticore

    It won't be any better than the best machines already available........just good enough in peoples minds to make them part with their money.Happy spending.🤣

    Tesoro lobo ?

    I don't think the goldmaxes were exported to the US.

    Quest detectors

    Non work well in black sand.You already know what work best in these conditions.....a pi or multi frequency machine.I thought you were serious about detecting in tough black sand conditions.Thats me done.

    c.scope cs4pi

    Decent detector but they aren't waterproof which i find rarther strange considering they are dedicated beach machines...easy to put a waterproof cover over the control box though i suppose.

    Detectors that have stood the test of time.

    Whites did some cracking detectors....wish i still had my beach hunter......fantastic beach machine.

    Shifting Tides

    Wow,that looks like an amazing place to search. The Seahunter as you found out is a dive rated machine.....it's built like a tank and will take any abuse that you throw at it.For a pi machine it is great value for money and with the larger coil on it goes as deep as I want to dig.It's a simple...

    Shifting Tides

    Correct........a pi or pulse induction works differently from a vlf machine and it's advantages include better performance on very difficult ground and generally greater depth.Their major drawback however is lack of discrimination,they find everything including ferous metals. Multi frequency...

    Shifting Tides

    Gt no longer made but the excalibur is which is basically a waterproof Sovereign.These machines do very well in the black sand,a lot better than the anfibio.The ctx is another good machine on the beach,you can't really go wrong with any of minelabs multi frequency units on the wet sand.

    Shifting Tides

    I have two detectors i use at the beach,my Sovereign gt and my garrett seahunter mk2.The Sovereign is my go to machine.....still one of the best beach detectors out there.However,if the going gets tough in black sand etc you just can't beat a pi.......in fact,I have been using the seahunter more...

    Equinox 600

    In perfect conditions without any emi,the maximum depth you will get in an air test is the maximum depth you will get in the ground.A lot of people will air test a machine in their house and find it isn't that great......its because of interference affecting the coils field.Take the machine out...

    T2+ vs Equinox 800

    I love how all these new machines come out and they,(according to many) change metal detecting for the better.You would think by now that detectors would be perfect and able to find any target in any situation.🤣 In reality,new models give the same type of performance in different...

    How does the Sovereign XS2-Pro compare to the Nox800 or even the Vanquish540?

    I think the superfly would have been the one I would have gone for if searching inland areas.I bought the thunder for its extra sweep coverage at the beaches.I'm very impressed with the thunder,I searched an area of small rocks and pebbles the other week at a local beach which is quite iron...

    How does the Sovereign XS2-Pro compare to the Nox800 or even the Vanquish540?

    I love my sovereign and would not swap it for any modern machine while i am fit enough to keep swinging it.I run mine with the nel thunder coil which gives me great coverage and depth and it will find just as much as any new model on the market at the beach.Contrary to popular belief it will...

    Best Scoop for Greatlake Inland beaches?

    Stainless steel is always the way to go,hard-wearing and a lot less expensive than titanium which is totally unnecessary.If your beaches are quite stoney a more pointed profile can be advantageous but a rounded profile scoop is an all-rounder and will cope with most situations.

    Detectors that have stood the test of time.

    I had a Musky too but never used it much before I sold it.A well known detectorist over here in the UK,who also owned a detecting shop,used one to great effect and found numerous hoards with it.He said he loved the simplicity of the machine,if you could see what he found with it I would say it...

    That looks like one of my mother in laws incisors.

    Detectors that have stood the test of time.

    Had one,actually had three M6's in all......great machine and still is.I used one on the beach for ages and did quite well with it.One of the best all rounders I ever owned.I had an 8x6 set coil on mine for inland use and this did really well.One of the only detectors that had a beach mode that...

    What do you do with a guy who digs deep holes and leaves his trash behind ???

    There isn't a lot you can do with people of that mentality,if you tell them they are being an asshole they will still act like an asshole because they are assholes.

    Detectors that have stood the test of time.

    What detectors do you own that you think are still relevant and can give the latest models a run for their money. I mostly detect the beaches these days so I will start off with the Sovereign GT and that old workhorse the Garrett Seahunter mk2.I still use both of these machines at the beach...
