Crossbow classic pi UPDATE

[nevntl]

Hi Guys
Thank-you for your pm's and phone calls it will be listed at some point today on this forums auction site it has been an awesome machine on the beach with very little rubbish dug it has been great on my permission with some very deep digs deepest over 24inch on cartwheel penny but being a pi on land also had to dig plenty of iron clad material its superb as a deep seeking relic hoard hunter on land on full depth on the beach I cannot reach some targets
Regards and thank-you for your interest Nev

As Nev has mentioned these Crossbow PI detectors are very deep and the build quality is amazing when it does go live in the auction its worth taking a serious look at it and try not to miss a top quality detector,i have one but i wont part with mine for sure

Just a selection guys
This photo shows the coinage rings etc from detecting Filey beach since November aka have a bucket full of bullet heads and fishing weights etc. As you are aware my Crossbow Classic is for sale in the forum auction I just want to show you the capabilities of this machine regards Nev

Your mad to sell it Nev, its just paid for itself again today, Just scrap the ring instead

[craghopper]

Are you giving up detecting if not why sell it, with the finds in photos don't think you will get a better detector .

Hi craghopper
By occupation I am a camping and touring warden my next move is inland so I have purchased a dual use machine.
For serious metal detector users this is an awesome beach machine and for inland stalwarts it would be a superb hoard hunter but not for every day coin shooting in fields hense the reason for sale this is a superb hobby for me it has now paid for itself twice over with all the previous coins and today's 18ct beauty Regards Nev

Nev ... keep the bloody thing. You will not get a better machine without paying a grand or more.
It is one to keep in your armoury.
Best
Brian

[lostandfound]

If i had the spare cash id bite your fingers off for it as i have LOADS of beaches here that i could wipe clean:)

good luck mate the reviews state its a very good tector

[stevexxx]

How would it compare against a GT or etrac I wonder ?

[stevexxx]

Really does sound a great machine, might be tempted if it had some discrim, might be tempted anyway just to give it a try...

Hi strevexxx
Once you get to grips with frequency sounds I can quite happily walk away from a non productive target. With regards to performance for a start your e trac was over £900 more expensive manufacturers names mean nothing these machines were constructed by George Overton with over 30 years in design and development on PI machines.
I don't want to knock manufacturers but are you telling me you can pull single coins off the beach regularly at over two feet I have forum members who have been to the beach with me and witnessed this on numerous occasions these machines were designed for tv archaeologists on a contract that fell through only twelve in existence with top warranty

[stevexxx]

Absolutely not, neither my etrac or elete will normally go that deep, thats why Im giving this some thought but the upper beaches here are full of iron and discrim is very useful but as you say with time the tones can tell you a lot
