Compadre, vaquero, & ????

[Herb Jones]

I have a compadre, as well
As a vaquero, if I were to
Consider a third unit, which would
You All recommend? Should I stick
With the delta lineup for coil
Compatibility , or
Is there an epsilon unit that would make
More sense. Or should I just
Invest the $$$ in additional
Delta Coils? If it were your $$$
How would you spend it?

You didn't mention where or what you hunt for, but seeing that you already have 5 pin coils, my choice for new would be an Outlaw. If you'd consider used, my favorite picks are Bandido II μMAX and Eldorado, both of which use the 5 pin. I think the Outlaw and Bandido are both particularly useful in trashy areas, when combined with the 5.75" coil.

For modern I second the outlaw. The 3 coil pack is a great deal!!
I love my bandido II micromax but they aren't as easy to come by and it's grandson the outlaw is extremely similar to the point I often say it's a modern bandido II micromax

Not sure whee you're from but i would add something a little different than what you have. the deleon is a great machine in mild soil, uses the same five pin coils and gives you a different look. That is if you are going to stay tesoro.

Tejon.

His Vaquero does NOT use the same coils as either the Outlaw or the Deleon.

I thought that.... the deltas are a much smaller family than the epsilons... I may just invest in a variety of coils, find one or two that I prefer and sell off the others... I'd like to expand my hunting style a little, as of yet I have only recovered coins. But I do have several early 1800s homesteads I can detect, so relics seem to be the most obvious next step. Or possibly beaches/water. Not quite sure,... just looking to change things up a little, so I have some first hand knowledge of apples vs oranges. I do appreciate the responses.

You're right; my mistake.

Why not then pick up a 5.75" concentric for your Vaquero...?

looking into doing just that.
