Garrett Pro-Pointer

I struggled between this pinpointer and the DetectorPro Pistol Probe Pulse Pinpointer and decided on Garretts because it is smaller, it has a scraping edge, a light and can be rinsed under water. The depth may not be as much as the Pistol Probe but if you pin point well with the metal detector you don't need the extra depth. The couple of inches I get with this pin pointer is all I need to help quickly locate my "treasure". It has saved me hours of digging time. It has been dropped from waist level and survived. The vibration may not be as strong now since it was dropped but overall I feel it has held up well. I will continue to use this detector and would recommend it to anyone.

I love this metal detector. The first thing I noticed when I opened the box was the high quality sheath. It is made out of a tough material, and the entire snap on belt strap has hook and loop, so it stays tight no matter how slim your belt is. The detector itself performs extremely well. The chirps increase as you get closer to the target. Makes finding those elusive dimes very easy. I not only use it metal detecting, but I also use it to find conduit inside the walls of my house. The entire detector can be rinsed off under the faucet if you get it all dirty. The speaker has sort of a water repellent film. Garrett out did himself when he constructed this instrument. This is a not a toy. Mine came with a battery tester as well.

I'm new to Metal Detecting, and am I glad that I bought this pinpointed right away! I would probably gave up if I didn't have it with me. I'm using it with Fisher F2, which is good MD but still takes some extra effort to pinpoint the find. Having Garret Pro in my other hand speeds things up considerably. It has good sensitivity and range, seems to be very durable, light and easy to carry. There's one minor annoyance however. You can't turn off the sound, and it's pretty loud. So I had to tape over the speaker opening :)
