The Stinger was designed to find gold. Garrett just happens to be running a special on it this summer. It is half the price of many detectors specifically designed to find gold, yet also has a good jewelry/coin hunting mode.

The Scorpion is a great gold machine running at a frequency of 15 khz, has controls for everything, including manual GB.. Has manual or auto tuning, full discrimination, all metal, three modes - motion discriminate, TR Discriminate, and all metal. It's a triple threat machine for nuggetshooting, coinshooting, andrelics.

The Scorpion is a great machine and will hit on the tiniest of objects. I've never had the chance to use mine in a gold field but as a relic hunter and coin shooter, it's great!! And it does love gold jewelry. Now, a favor please, turn off your Caps Lock!! It's the same thing as SCREAMING when typing!! Thanx!!

 

[GOLD&OLDIES]

[GOLD&OLDIES]

[BigCatDaddy]

No problem!! If you do decide on a Scorpion, I think you'll be surprised at what a versatile machine it is. It's the sleeper in the Garrett line, no doubt.
