It's like a weight lifted, no more looking, head scratching, mooching through technical specs, frequencies, coils......

Anyone want to take a guess or shall I just spill?  ;D

I'd imagine it's in the same league the F75 and T2 at least I bloody hope so..

Quite exciting  :)

Coinshooter ::)

Divining rods!  ;D

etrac with 18'' sef coil

gotta be an explorer xs with a 12x10 sef , the dogs dangly bits

X-terra 705  ;)

Well it can not be a Deus because thats a league above the F75 and T2  ;D

It has to be GMP

 

Its not your old blisstool is it ...... ;D ;)

easy does it pip  ::) ::)

even mentioning bl@~* tool on here could cause a civil war  :D :D :D

Whoooops  :o :o  Who little old me  ;) ;) ;D

thats debatable  ;)

Ha!

Nope I got a Blissto.... only joking  ;D

Nobody has named it which is worrying! Should I have said it's a step down from the T2/F75 and no way near the GMP maybe alittle better than the X-terra 705 and would be killed by the sheer Coinshooter excellence ;D

DFX????

Yawn i know what it is

its got to be a GARRETT AT PRO  ,

Do you, do you really punk  ;D

Unlucky Geoff & Mike  :)

One of these ?

OHH! a Deus...why didn't you say :D

LOL  ;D ;D  Its the new design, might make the arm ache a bit though...

Cscope CS6MXi

nice shade of pink , must be the new Deus  :o :o :o

ok last go .

c scope r1 newforce

Not a C.Scope 6MXi, people have been moaning they ain't all that great and the Newforce makes me feel unclean  ;D

Amusing thread but I'll spill if no one get it soon  :D

Think that pink on is the Deus MK2?

Hurry up,im just off nighthawking 8)

LOL!!  ;D

Off topic but has anyone watched that lucky old sod Ged on Youtube with the Deus, all he ever seems to find is gold and silver!

OK, if not that wooden one, what about a pair of these in Sizes 5 - 9 ?

one of these  ;D ;D ;D

If nowt else yr giving me and the other half a giggle!!  ;D

 ;D LOL at the handle  :D

Well nobody got it so here's the reveal.....

I think it looks great!! Judging by field test it's easily up there with the Fishers and Teknetics no bell or whistles just 7.2kHz and plenty of power AND it's UK made.

Got a good feeling with this one, could be an animal on silver! Can't wait to get out with it!

What do yo lot think?  :)

Can not see the picture, whats the detector called

It's the VK40... well chuffed!

OK cut the jokes :D What have you got really.

Very understated machine Geoff, sometimes you have to give the under dog a chance. And supporting a UK made machine just makes sense!

What :o I thought you were joking ???

I doubt it will be in the same league as a F75 and T2

Same league as a Garrett ace 250 

I think it may not be as good as the ace! I'm still thinking that Dusty is joking, but we shall see ???

regtons got a great deal on at the moment

headphones , trowel , battery , coil cover and a very nice beginers guide to metal detecting .....................£240 what a bargain , they even throw in a free viking metal detector to get you started  :D :D :D

Come on fella's its miles better than the Ace, it air tests at 8" on a Roman and 9" on small silver. Don't think the Ace better that?

now thats a good lookin viking dusty ;) ;)

Small silver at 9"?  I don't think so....well it depends what you call small I guess. But I know one thing it won't disc out much iron. Watch the youtube demo by the Norfolk wolf.
I still think your joking :D

It may air test a small silver at 9 inches Geoff

My Deus can get a hammered penny at 12 inches in air with the right settings

Surprisingly it seems to work better than the F5. Also found a gold ring in the garden I lost in 85. Can't knock it at the mo!

good choice dusty i have a vk40 and think its brill miles better than ace 250 just read denise moncasters articles in th mag i will be at ponty rally if u need any info charles  8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)   

Did you not buy that Sovereign XS-2a Pro?, going by your other thread you mentioned you was looking a lot more expensive detectors than the Viking you say you have bought.

Although I take it that this is a NEW machine?, not used that you say you purchased, so I guess it would have some kind of warranty.

 ;)

Sorry chaps I was pullin yr chains! Gotta admit its been very amusing, Geoff had me sussed from the out lol  ;D

The detector I bought was a MINELAB Safari..

Cheers all for the laughs  ;)

thank f for that , good choice mate , mind you she was a good lookin viking  ;) ;) ;)

Well done Dusty, you B*#%"d. You had me worried there for a minute ;D Good choice of machine, now take it slow and learn learn learn. It will pay you back and then some ;)

G2

Probably wish you had got the viking in a week or two ;D

OUCH, that hurt like a kick in the bollo.....

In all honesty I know Minelab's are a bit odd with the noise and all but it's something I'll have to learn and put up with as I won't have any spare cash to buy anything else..

While people are still reading this silly thread what would you guys pay for a clean example, not box but coming with a battery pack (1600 mah), pack for the AA's, charger and manual?

£400 / £500  ;)

"While people are still reading this silly thread what would you guys pay for a clean example, not box but coming with a battery pack (1600 mah), pack for the AA's, charger and manual?"

For godsake give it a chance,try it for another week at least :o

 ;D sweet!

Thought 400 to 500 hundred was about right.. cheers Pipster  :)

What's more ANNOYING is that someone has just come up with a slightly scabby looking F75 for £300..... Aaaahhhhhhhh!  >:(
