I Bet A Lot Of People Don't Know This About Garrett Detectors

That they have been building metal detectors since 1964, which means that their 50th Anniversary was in in 2014. And they have been very busy all these years too!

Go figure.....I copied a post from 2 years ago. Fixed!

Well then, that means the woman in the post is 3 years older.

Probably all worn out by now and all wrinkled up.

That is a very informative list. I bought my first Garrett in 1973. It was a Master Hunter BFO. That thing had one heck of a heavy coil.
Then, I had a couple other brand detectors. Around 1984 a Master Hunter ADS 5. It was a great machine in it's day.

I now have an AT Pro.

So...Garrett has not produced any new machines between 2012 and 2015?

2016...They just put out the Ace 400.
