Metal Detecting Forum

I found a video recently where the detectorist was using an Atpro on iffy signals. He then used a pinpointer that appeared to pinpoint at several inches. You cannot see what brand the pipointer was. Does anyone know what it was. It was not a Garrett pinpointer but was black in color.

The Treasure Mate by Tesoro has a black probe with a yellow body and is a tad deeper than the pro pointer when properly adjusted. Could you tell if it had 2 knobs?

If you don't dig it, you'll never know!

Was probably a DetectorPro Pistol Probe.

I agree with Del (D&P)...Detector Pro....they are big....look like a handgun from a distance....., but go several inches deeper than a Garrett. Although one owner of one who loves it says it has a really cheaply built on/off switch. I think they are pulse induction units, therefore much better depth.

Pistol Probe. I had one and it drove my Minelabs crazy but it was deep. Also you can't put them in your carry-on at the airport because security said it looked like a handgun.

I thought of the pistol probe after I had posted above. I understand that they are quite a bit deeper than other hand helds, but I'm pretty sure they don't have a vibrate mode which is important to me as I wear headphones that seal against outside noise quite well.

Thanks for all the responses. I saw the video again and the pinpointer had a green and a red LED on it. This would make it a Pistol Probe.
