    Smiles, smiles, and more smiles

    Hi all, Last Saturday I found this ring at a local High School. The smiley face ring gave me a big smile. Everyone that has seen it since has gotten a big smile on their face. And, my almost 7 year old granddaughter just loves it. Thanks for looking Hunt4Fun

    Problems with GTAx 1250 and GTP 1350

    Hi All, Hope you can help me. I had a GTAx 1000 for many years. It worked great as a coin-shooter in and around my area, Simi Valley, CA. I liked it so well that it did not even cross my mind to buy anything other than a Garrett machine when I gave my GTAx 1000 to my son-in-law a year ago...

    Newbie to needle-metered detectors.

    Hi all, I have never used or even been around a needle-metered detector. Most of my metal detecting experience started 6 months ago with an MXT. I bought an XL Pro, and am expecting delivery soon ..... can hardly wait. I downloaded a manual from the White's site and have read it through...
