So where are the detector reports??

[msleonas]

Thanks for the info MIdigger! I went out detecting again today. I wanted to go bottle digging, but it didn't pan out. I found this gun, which looks like a cap gun. It is all metal. It had "Derringer" on it.

nice cap gun find! i always end up finding halves of them. your's looks like the 1960's Hubley Derringer. Quite a few on eBay.

hope you're enjoying the hobby!

if you ever want to upgrade to an inexpensive but powerful detector, best bang for the buck is the Tesoro Compadre...170 or so.

not much going on here. Been busy with daughter playing soccer and setting up for rummage sale etc..

sold some of the surplus pouches we picked up. bought 200 leather and od green canvas 3 mag AK pouches. nice sized. 3x7x9.

sold a couple knives. Handed out over 200business cards of people who specifically came to see knives (CL ads and newspaper ads).
bro in law going to do the website this week. setting up hosting tomorrow. going to use Lemon POS for a POS system. Free. Better than quickbooks. very intuitive and simple.

Going auction off a knife for the relay for life. all proceeds going to the relay of course.

here's our logo for now...(hope it comes through...glabels only saves in glabels..have to convert)

here's a cool brass knife I found in a box of stuff I had lying around...

Not much for a knife. Brass blade is mostly good for a letter opener...

MS-- glad to help, and keep posting your finds. Ive not detected anything like the cap gun. Iron- thats some interesting news. The brass knife is different, cant say Ive seen one before!. Good luck on the business. There are some things Iam looking for, just need to get time to send you a list.
I hit 2 parks and a school playground yesterday. 1st park- 3d,2n,2p and a very small sterling ring. Park 2-nothing, and Park 3 1q,1d,2p and an aluminum Budweiser can. Oh, and I am able to report (with certainty) I was only a donor to the Powerball drawing Saturday!!.
Good luck with the finds all---

nice finds again. silver is silver. It's been raining like crazy off and on up here. Going to hit the backyard in a bit. Cool and overcast day. Good for hunting.
whatever you need, just let me know. I'll hook you up.
we just picked up 200 surplus 3mag AK pouches. Leather and OD Green canvas... 3x7x9. Perfect for tools for MD. I'm oiling up all of the leather ones. cleaning them and rubbing some conditioner into them to soften them a bit...
here are a cpl pics...

Glad to see someone getting some finds. I did get another small sterling ring, and $4.23 in change (nothing old). 1 metal button, and a rusted folding pocket knife that was disposed of. Hoping to hit a couple new spots this weekend, and do a bit of digging too. Good luck all--
