Hello everyone. I started detecting in may and am so happy I decided to go with bh as my first machine (sharpshooter 2). I joined another forum from the area I am from and just posted my finds without saying what machine I owned. It makes me laugh when people look down on someone with a bh. I will never sell this machine. Have recently bought a compadre aswell. It does what it says in the vids. Will read small anything right next to a fence or playground. I'm so happy with my 2 first choices as they compliment eachother very well. l am looking into the 4" coil for my bh. HH
