Wally and Ded thank you very much. This was very helpful! Great comprehensive breakdown there Wally, cheers!

Most of my detecting is done on the beach. with my Safari and most of my targets are found up in the shrub. My question is.. I dont think I have ever found anything down by the shore. Do people just tend not to drop stuff there, is it the constant change of the sand by the ocean that pushes...

So just purchased the Minelab Safari as my first Metal Detector.. had my first run in the garden trying to work it out (first time I ever done this so I am a real fresh fish). To be honest I am not sure at all as to what I should be looking out for numbers and sound wise.. was just trying to dig...

Will do John, Toady we will see what hidden treasures we have in the garden :) Thanks!

Thank you to Ridge Runner and everyone else here who helped me make my decision to join the "metal detecting community". Today I pulled the trigger on the Minelab Safari and a Minelab Pinpointer. I look forward to educating myself and practicing the art of metal detecting with my 5yo son. No...

Thank you John, very informative and helpful again! I think I am leaning towards the Safari (unless you think the Garrett AT Pro for $700 is a good option?) didnt plan to spend this much initially but I think Im going to have to go for it! Could you please just clarify if I would need some sort...

Goldpick, makes sense! Only reason I mentioned the Garrett AT Max was because I was offered a second hand one for $700 (good deal?). Was just wondering if that would be something to be considered along the 705 and the Safari.. but you stil think the Safari for my needs? (taking gold out of the...

Thanks guys! Very useful info and thanks for the heads up about the sale Brunks. Just putting it out there.. how would you compare the Garrett AT Pro to the Safari and the 705? Thanks!

Thank you John for your reply. What is it that makes the safari better for beaches? Also do you need a permit to go out and hunt? Would it be possible to get another coil for the Safari to make it more suitable for gold or is it more to do with the actual unit? (Sorry not good with the...

Hi guys, I am new here. Want to get into metal detecting as I think this would be a great activity for me and my son to do together + I have always liked the idea of "hunting for treasures" :) I have kind of narrowed it down to the 705 or the Safari. Looking to hunt coins, relic and jewelry in...
