    Rick’s Manta Manifesto

    I posted this a few minutes ago on another forum, in response to a question of whether a special purpose gold hunting beach PI like the Manta would be a machine that folks would buy and then not like. I think the answer is some will love it, some won’t. Pretty much like any other detector. You...

    Taming the Savage Armadillo - I mean ATX

    I posted already that the sling provided wasn't much help for me. Today I received my ML Pro Swing 45 harness. Oh bliss! It works very well to take the dead weight of the great Armadillo off my arm and shoulder. There is a nice shoulder strap and hip belt arrangement and a very clever...

    ATX Wishes

    I think that probably anyone who has used the ATX on land realizes that for "non-combat" dry land operations, the whole armadillo thing is way overkill. By the way, does the "A" in ATX just stand for "Armadillo" - just askin' 'cause I grew up in South Texas. But what to do? Why would Garrett...

    ATX Relaxation

    I recently scored what might be the first second-hand ATX. Nice machine, but the first owner took it to the beach - fresh water - licked it to make sure - no salt, but fine white sand was much in evidence.
