Hi everyone,

I have just signed up so am new.

I would like to get into this hobbie a lot more as i really enjoy it.

I have around £400 to spend on two detectors, One for me and one for my uncle (must be the same detectors) and would like to no what the people on this forum would recommend. I have seen the garret ace 250 advertised and seems to be good for the money?
If it's any help the surfaces i normally scan are normally short grassed fields.

So if you could please say the machine you would use and pro's and con's please.

Thank you
 
Welcome from California Alan!!!

We now have three Alan's...no waiting. :lol:

Seriously, we have several folks from Europe who can give you good advice regarding what works in your soil conditions, etc. The Ace 250 is very popular in the US and will likely work out for you as well.

Glad you joined us and can't wait for pictures and stories from your hunts.
 
If buying from new the Ace 250 is indeed a good buy (for around £200)
If you are not worried about having a display, something from the "Laser" range might suit you, as they are very light and easy to use.
Don't be sucked into buying a machine with lots of buttons and switches, as you'll soon get confused.
