    FOR SALE Excellent Explorer XS

    I just recently purchased this XS to test it out because I've heard so much about it. In fact, some favor it over the Explorer II and SE. I found this to be a very deep and versatile detector. The tones and meter readings are accurate. Some people like the Tesoro DeLeon and Cortes with...

    P1853 Cleaning Questions

    My rifle will be here Monday and I'd like to at least wipe it down to show relatives coming to stay with us for a week. They'll be here Wednesday so here's what I've got planned. Using burlap pieces I'll wipe her down with mineral spirits. Sound okay to you? I want to leave my gun as old...

    Where Are the other P1853 Muskets? Thought Some Others Were Ordering One This Week? I'd like

    Hey Vernon! The P1853 Finally Arrived!:clapping:

    As you can see the wood has some issues behind the breach and on the wall side of the stock. The show side of the wood looks pretty good. Too bad about the wood behind the breach. But, that's the way it goes with these. I was thrilled to see all hardware and a nice round straight barrel:clap...

    1st Day Out with the XS - Falsing Problem

    Okay, I love the XS and it's very deep. But I get tons of false signals. I've learned to sort through them and dig the more solid tight signals. But why do I get so many high tone signals that lead to an empty hole? I hunt in Quickstart with sensitivity on 14. I'm using the stock coil and...

    How Does the XS Compare in Depth with

    the GT, Explorer II, and SE (SEPro)? I just purchased a XS with the last update installed. I'm curious how it compares to the other top Minelabs (not just in depth). Any comments? Thanks, Badger

    Tejon Better Than Nautilus IIB - What Do Think?

    I've been at detecting a little longer than dirt has existed on planet earth. I've owned them all (almost) and now I'm thinking back to my Tejon and Nautilus IIB. Which one was the better coin machine? It's been so long I don't really recall anymore. Actually it doesn't take me very long to not...

    Good Times with Tesoro

    My first Tesoro was the DeLeon. I purchased it not too long after they came out with that model. I dug more coins and relics that year that any of my other years doing this hobby (I started detecting in 1968 with a Whites CoinMaster IV). I was one of the first to dig Western Michigan's lost...
