Fast hunt at old small apartment sight now tour down dating to the mid 1940's.
Did not find a hole lot today the sight was really small. I noticed that the Outlaw hits nice and solid on good targets and hits a little scratchy and broken sounding on items that hit solid but end up being trash. I dug everything that repeated a signal today and thumbed the disk to check before digging
In the pic the small round bead hit solid like a coin and did not cut out on the disk until past zinc and was about 4" down. The brass rings dropped out just above nickel and the brass buckle came in like a bigger coin. The small buttons in the pic all came in around nickel one of them (the little flower a little bellow) and the other two a little above. There is a small old brass clasp with righting on it that came in at around zinc (if not paying attention a guy would have tossed it as it looked like trash until a second look) The token came in like a coin and the penny came in around zinc. The rest is trash was more broken sounding repeatable signals at different places on the disk.
Nothing great found but I am getting the feel for the Outlaw it does have a nice smooth audio sound on good targets and a more duller sort of scratchy sound on junk. You can hear the discriminator doing its job on small bits of trash ticking every now and then (had it set just below foil) All the metal rusted screw caps were null-ed or disk-ed out along with all the small bits of metal laying around. The Outlaw likes small targets like the little buttons and the smaller bead like item. Also it likes coin size items as it should.
(A Quick Note About My Outlaws Disk knob)
When I got my Outlaw the disc knob was dropping nickel's at just below tabs not at or around nickel like it should. I re-adjusted the knob so it drops nickels dead on the nickel mark and they come back in just a hair below the nickel mark. ( I have done this to every Tesoro I have ever owned great for identifying nickels when the knob is set like this on the disk)
I think the Outlaw is a keeper..
Happy Hunting To All,
