I donā€™t have any personal experience with that model. But if I were you I would cough up a few more dollars and go for an AT Pro. Fully waterproof, and is just an all around detector ( Except in wet sand!) The reason I say that, is because right now an AT Pro on eBay is $400, so not much of a price difference there. Hope that helps!

I had a Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro which is the same machine. It's the best bang for the buck since it comes with many options that are standard on higher end machines. The only issue that I am aware of is that the pin point membrane switch use to become inoperable in some of the earlier machines. They probably fixed that issue, but that's what warranties are good for right. Good luck and enjoy your new detector.

By the way that's a great price. The LRP was being sold for over $400 by some vendors 2 years ago.

If that machine produces good finds from a decent depth, then you got an excellent deal.
Congratulations

A At pro will feel like swinging a mac truck after that liberator!

That's a great deal. What can you really buy for 200 bucks these days? That's not even my cable bill for a month.

I consider going from the Liberator to the AT Pro would be a down grade in capabilities unless you need a waterproof machine. The AT Pro has a huge following, and I love to hunt with people who use them since they leave the deep stuff for me to come back and dig.

I think its the same as Eurotek pro. Very underated entry level detector. I used to hunt with a buddy and it was much deeper than my F5. Good value for the $. I would love a patriot (F70) but just cant justify it right now. The Eurotek only came out with a concentric also so your 11" DD is a bonus. It may be slightly nose heavy (its a lightweight detector)but the depth is worth it. Enjoy

The Minuteman is the Eurotec Pro - the Liberator is the Bounty Hunter Land Ranger Pro

Both great bargains right now

It's a great machine with the ability to notch by one VDI at a time. Very precise notching system, excellent depth and speed. Only drawback is the push in coil. If you want larger coils or more of a selection buy the $20 push in to screw on adapter from Serous Detecting.
