Why would I want an Outlaw...

The only reason to buy an Outlaw would be because you want one, other than that you have a better detector already.
I hunt with a Vaquero and a Tejon and they are the two deepest Tesoro detectors I have used.
Buy some extra coils for your Vaquero if you don't already have them. The 5.57 concentric coil is a coin killer in the trash.

I already have that coil. I'm kind of thinking the same thing. I only see two minor advantages of the Outlaw. One, you can switch to all metal withoiut disturbing your disc setting (which is a minor issue) and two, you can retune the pinpoint like on the Tejon. I suppose the short battery life of the Vaquero scores one for the Outlaw too, but the increased depth is a fair trade for that.

Never used an Outlaw but I had a Vaquero for about two years. If the Outlaw is as deep and better in iron it would be an advantage. Although the Vaquero is deep, it loves iron.
I also have the vaquero with a additional 5.75 concentric coil. This machine works well for me because I hunt a lot of open areas (sports fields, parks, parking lots ect
with the stock coil. The smaller coil I use around structures, tot lots, heavy trash areas. While the vaquero does well for me, I believe the Outlaw would be better around old house places, metal structures and other heavy nail infested area. The vaquero is H.O.T. and is probably a lot hotter around the edge of the coil than the outlaw. I like this for open area hunting that I do, but something a little more restrained (turning down the sensitivity won't always do it, it is what it is) would be better in those tight close in areas. I actually think the silver with a screw or knob ground balance would be a good mate. Different horse for different courses. JMO Cal

One reason why an Outlaw. If you're well invested in
