Hey Doc, long time since I've seen you. I didn't have any gripes about shelling out the money for my 5000 but the $9999 is a little harder to swallow as this time around not as much extra cash laying around. I kept my other 2 cheaper machines but like most of the 5000 I see forsale i would also have to sell mine to even think about the new one.

Hey Rob I have a question. Are the pre orders coming from current minelab owners or newbies? Just curious which type would be shelling out that much money on the newest machines. I wasn't a detector virgin when I got my 5000 but I did make the jump from a goldbug2 right to the 5000.

I'm a big 38 revolver fan, you can get them cheap and fairly cheap to practice shooting. I have them laying all around the house in case the need shows up. The one that goes into my holster mounted on my detector harness is a stainless colt detective special with a messed up finish, I got it really cheap. Not lightweight but functions no matter how dusty it gets. PS a 357 is a better caliber but the only one I have is to big to carry.

Thanks guys I had a blast and have 100% confidence in my machine now so watch out gold here I come. Hey and only 75 pieces of trash per nugget.
