NC FOLKS

Hi,

I'm new in the RTP area and I'm looking for locals who know of "safe" areas to go MD'ing with my Garrett GTI 2500.

Any leads of groups to contact would be gratefully accepted. I've researched NC laws on MD'ing and I'm spooked to go out!! I've tried getting permission for some bulldozed lots but was told NO!!!

Hope to hear from someone soon!!

Hey Buffalo, Jamestown here..What is the RTP area and what has you spooked??
 

Hi, new to metal detecting, new to Wilmington, grew up in Cary, NC. Any tips on locating older areas around Wilmington to hunt would be much appreciated. Looked around downtown seems to be all privately owned?

As for NC laws, don't be spooked. Stay out of State and Federal parks and you'll be OK. Ask permission on all privately owned land. There is a club in Raleigh - Triangle Relic Recovery. www.trianglerelicrecovery.com
 

Goldsboro/SJAFB been here 2.5 years. Would really like a club near by. I mostly hunt weekends.
 

Anyone know of a safe place to hunt or any owners that don't mind MD'ing??

Thanks!

I went on the website and sent an email but, I don't see much activity on their site. Are you near RTP???

I live in Garner. Just south of Raleigh. The Raleigh club meets the last Tuesday of the month. I'll try to send you some info.
 

Thanks!!

I'll look forward to it!!!

My 2013 finds bag is still not started and I get to stare at my 2011 & 2012 finds.....

I'm itching bad to do some detecting!!!
 

I'm new to MD'ing. Living in the Garner/Cleveland area and would love to meet up with anyone that's available weekdays to show me around the area. I've got some property in Kittrell as well that may prove to be good hunting grounds as well.

You are welcome to detect in Uwharrie if you enjoy large fines and having your detector confiscated..I've heard of people doing it,but not worth it to me!!
