Hello guys and gals,

Ok, I am looking to purchase a waterproof metal detector. I currently own Garrett's Ace 250 and White's Prizm IV. I was looking at either White's MX Sport or Garrett AT Pro. I plan on using the detector primarily on land but do plan on detecting around some creek and freshwater beaches (water up to knee level -- do you think waterproof is the way to go in this case?). What are the best deals out there around this time? Do you have any sponsor recommendations or should I be looking primarily at either Kellyco or BigBoysHobbies?

Your input is much appreciated! Thanks!

I just ordered an AT Pro myself. If you are going to be hunting around water, I say go for waterproof. It just takes one stumble into the water and one that isn't waterproof will be done for.

As far as a forum sponsor, go with Showmetreasure.com . I checked with all the sponsors here and he gave me the best price. Only stipulation being that you will have to wait until the 3rd for it to ship.
 
I agree with Aperdue.

I bought my ATP from Bart at Big Boys Hobbies, and he's a sponsor here. Call or email for the best prices, all are required to list MSRP, but most will give a better price on the phone.

I also bought my CZ 21 from him.
 
Whites MXSport

I have owned both and the MX sport is ten fold better in my opinion! I think it is deeper and faster on recovery speed and its built like a tank!

ATPro is nice, the iron audio is great feature but falls short against the MX Sport.

MX sport built better than the at pro. Check out the videos of abuse it can take

I have an AT Pro which I love and I have used Bart at Big Boys in the past and had great dealings with him. I don't try to get the sponsors in a bidding war but would call or email a few of them and ask what they will offer you price wise.
