Hello
I would like to purchase a metal detector for my son who is turning 6. I don’t want to spend a ton of money as I have no idea if he will like the hobby(he says he will but he’s 6!!!)
Any recommendations on what to buy? Looking at reviews I see the Bounty Hunter TID junior seems to be highly recommended for a kid of his age. The problem is I am in Canada and everyone seems to be out of stock with no ETA for new stock while this pandemic is happening.
I also see the National Geographic Junior. I can’t find any reviews on this one. I want a beginner metal detector not a toy. Is the National Geographic Junior model ok for a beginner kid or is it just a toy?
Below are the two links for the two detectors I was looking at. Any help would be appreciated as I have no knowledge about metal detectors.
