I found this ring at the ocean beach this morning. Its marked Benchmark Comfort-Fit 14k on the inside.
The beach badge goes for $55 with a minimum purchase of two of them. On most of the beaches here, the municipalities use a beach rake towed behind some sort of tractor which does a decent job of cleaning out alot of the garbage and leaves the beach looking like new. It doesnt get the coins or rings and maybe occasionally snags a chain at best. Then they have workers walk the beach removing bottles, towels and chairs left behind, which there alot of. Here at this beach this morning they only used a quad pulling a piece of chainlink fence to smooth over the sand with workers walking behind picking up the debris. They guy looked like he was having alot of fun driving that quad up and down the beach. I asked a cop(they patrol on quads also) if the public could used quads on the beach after the season is over, because they allow 4 wheel drives with a permit
($ again for each and every beach you need their permit)but he said only registered vehicles were allowed so quads are out.
Id sure like to rig something up this fall to hook up to my 4x4 to drag behind to see what I could sift out. I think Sept is the earliest you can do this.

Nice ring, you're doing well with the Tejon <img src="/metal/html/smile.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":)">.

Thanks JB.
The Tejon is really a nice machine. I have a CZ3D and an MXT that I bought this spring that are collecting dust in the back bedroom. Not sure if I should sell em or try them some more. I really took a liking to the Tejon from the start. I like Tesoros design in detectors and its really sensitive. Ive got tons of tinfoil to prove it to <img src="/metal/html/lol.gif" border=0 width=15 height=15 alt=":lol">
take care and enjoy the summer...oh wait, your in MS so its probably hot and humid right? Well, fall is right around the corner and Im actually looking forward to that too.....football season!

Both of those machines are supposed to be coin killers. Is the weight differance real noticeable between the Tejon and the MXT, and the 3D.
 
The CZ is the heaviest and most noticeable of the three. It may not actually be the heaviest, I forget the actual weight of it, but with the control box on top of the rod its by far the most tiring to use.
The MXT is close to the Tejon in how it feels but you can tell a difference after using it for awhile.
I put the 6x10 on my MXT which helped it but you still feel the difference. With the stock coil, the MXT feels even heavier yet. The Tejon isnt as light as the Umax models, but not heavy for say a 4 to 5hour hunt. With the 12x10 DD on the Tejon, it feels about the same as the MXT with the 6x10.
If you hipmount/chestmount the CZ, of course its the lightest of the bunch, real easy to swing.
