I have been reading a lot on these units and watching videos. Now I see ads in the wanted section that people are wanting these unites. Just how good are they. Are they built rugged? Where are they made? Are there any used ones out their? I guess I just have a bunch of questions don't I.... Thanks for any good information.... KEN

there a super machine I treat them just like my guns clean everytime back from a hunt
I like mine, when I got it , it looked bigger than need be, like a larger version of a u max unit
It has a very fast recovery speed, like a g2 or mxt , outlaw ect........ There is probably some mathmatical way to calculate it exactly but for comparision I use the others listed. So thats what I know
It can be set up to notch foil and still get smaller gold chains with a good sound, very cool , cant think of a machine that can do that.
I got mine used from Richard at Backwoods, very good condition, the videos posted by Mr Southern are a very accurate example of how it works in the real world .
On dry sand at the ocean beach one can hunt for gold without digging endless foil, med damp sand is ok , wet sand forget it.
It does hit very hard on nickles and does better than fair on dimes-quarters less so, I tried using it for coin shooting and if you swing fast the coins hit really well (surprise
pulltabs to.
If your in iron nail areas the big coil does darn good will lock onto the target.
Depth is good
Does very good on small targets
No emi issues
Med Lightweight unit
Strong point is chain jewellery, working targets in iron

I don't think there is a better machine in separation of iron, just my humble opinion

The Gold has been just incredible at my hunted out, iron infested sites, making them come alive again. It also gets excellent depth on small relics and coins.
The quality of build is lacking. They look like toys compared to most of today's detectors but they perform great.
