Jonathan Porter Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Steve looks like you'll have two new water proof toys to play with on your stomping grounds. I did some work a few years ago on the original F3 compact and asked long and hard then if they could produce something for the gold game in the same housing (I had you in mind at the time ), isn't competition a hoot?

Ridge Runner Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Hey Steve That's the same picture I seen in Lost Treasure ad from Minelab. The ad in the mag. you just couldn't see it good.as you can on the site you posted. This still has to be a rumor. Ha Ha Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridge Runner Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Steve I just looked at my email and Minelab America sent me the same thing what you posted and like the ad I'd seen.Oh I feel good and I knew I would.

Ridge Runner Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Hey Big John If what we see and read the two detectors have a lot in common. Now to see how the price will compare and what will be said about this new Minelab. What the ATX has to offer so far has all been positive and for most a positive price for a gold detector. The only question for you is Did you field test this one???? Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Oh Kyle What I said was that what the ad said looked like what the F3 looked like. On the ad in LT you couldn't see really see what the sam hill it was because it was so small. Why you go back and read again what I said . It's good to see that Garrett American made got it right But now to see if Minelab that's had it right for so long got it right in this detector. When it comes down to it I'll spend my money on what I think. I'm not from the show me state but what the field report says will win me over.

Steve Herschbach Posted December 3, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Hi JP,I have been harassing White's for years for a waterproof TDI and Minelab for years for a waterproof PI of any sort. Heck, even Tesoro makes a waterproof PI. Minelab has been notably lacking in that regard forever. Better late than never. And yes, competition is great. Nice to see things heating up. Now if Fisher and White's would just do something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deathray Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 Dang Kyle, you throw your life savings in Garret stock? We get it man, now put down the pom poms! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Looking back at the ad in LT it says Easy to use ( switch on & go ) and Proven MPS Technology. I'm not sure just what MPS Tech means. ChuckPS I had to go look it up and found out it's just another word for PI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goldstudmuffin Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 When they make a detector that tells me what kind of metal the target is.... then I'll get excited! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ridge Runner Posted December 4, 2013 Report Share Posted December 4, 2013 Goldstudmuffin You've got coin detectors that come near to what you want but not in a PI detector as of yet.All I wanted was a digging arm on one.HaHa I know I've hunted before and if scrap iron was worth a lot I'd been rich. Just like back in the gold rush days not all got rich. Chuck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
