    Who uses their wired headphones with the Equinox or Manticore detectors?

    Use Killer B’s on my etrac and they “speak” to me like no other headphones I have used. Would they work on a Manticore?

    Small park I’ve hit with D1,D2,Manticore hits more silver in a few hours !

    Thanks. I may have stated in previous posts I have an etrac and currently looking for a replacement that has faster recovery speed and more proficient at unmasking in iron. I primarily deal with massive iron concentrations in old farm sites. Have narrowed choices down to manticore and D2...

    What detectors did you have before the D2 and Manticore?

    A prayer request for myself..

    Know all too well what a cancer diagnosis entails. Keep your head up and forge ahead. For all its obvious negatives, in retrospect it made me a better man and brought me closer to my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. “May the Lord bless and keep you; Make his face to shine upon you; Look upon...

    WE LIVE IN A CARNAL WORLD

    I agree that we shouldn’t get too wrapped up, worked up, reliant and totally immersed in politics or other worldly matters. Mark 12:17 comes to mind.

    MINELAB Manticore Unmasking And Recovery Performance

    Curious if you have owned an etrac. If so what makes the manticore outshine it besides recovery speed? I have been thinking lately about adding a new detector. Looked into a DEUS II but with my job(farming) I need to have a detector at the ready immediately. Can’t concern myself with making...

    Need help identifying

    That is very true. A gneiss is layered and metamorphic as well. I agree more like a granitic igneous rock on the one side.

    Need help identifying

    Often difficult to identify without holding it in your own hands but possibly a Muscovite Schist?

    Just bought a Legend at age 70…

    Congratulations!!! Best to you and thanks for what you do. I live in the sticks so I know your job is not easy delivering out in the country with weather, road conditions and long distances. I don’t have knowledge of the legend but setting it up to operate in iron will help immensely. That...

    Iron ball

    Shot in the dark but could it be from an ore mill? They often used iron balls to help crush and pulverize ore for extraction of minerals/metals.

    Insane amount of gold coins found!

    Crazy what can be hidden with only one family member knowing the location. An untimely death renders it lost for years. Case in point my great grandfather who passed away from appendicitis. Flash forward to when I was 8 years old and his blacksmith shop roof caved in. We were cleaning it out...

    Ya know that feeling

    Yes. Like that yellow glint you get when digging up a ring only to find greenish, off color areas when you clean it off. Maybe next time.

    Considering Deus2

    Posted previously that I have an Etrac and am satisfied with it but a few factors have me seriously looking at the Deus. 1. Weight. A hard life in agriculture has left me with back, hip and shoulder problems. Tried swingy thingy but too cumbersome. 2. Depth. With the 8x6 SEF coil I feel...

    Minelab Etrac vs others?

    Owned an etrac since I believe 2012. It has exceeded my expectations since it’s unboxing. I hunt almost exclusively old farm sites that are absolutely infested with iron in all shapes and sizes. Hunting in two tone ferrous with a small sef 8x6 coil has produced more finds while retaining my...

    Rifle ID

    I could be wrong but I think it is a Winchester model 1885 single shot rifle receiver.

    Rifle ID

    Bucket lister. Have found several toy guns over the years but this carbine action is for real. Man if I could only find the barrel. Lock was a nice parting touch on an old farm site.
