craigs list is probably your best bet for selling it, or maybe even your local prospecting store.
Good lord though, keep it! You never know when it will come in handy like a low low water situation, or make a nice recirc in your garage.

Just sayin'
love me some bazooka though!

Hmm, good idea to keep it. Get some v matting to line the bottom and you've got a solid super low water sluice for fine gold. Will run on almost o flow at all :)

That may be the best idea I have heard all day. Thanks!

My pleasure! With that as your low flow sluice (v mat at hardware store will only cost a few bucks), I'd recommend the Prospector model for regular use. You'll be amazed at how much more material you move vs. traditional sluices.

I was out today with a friend who has a typical drop riffle sluice, for which he classifies to 1/4" before feeding. In three hours, he classified and ran about 1/4 the material I ran by shoveling direct into my Bazooka Prospector running in moderate/fast water. The difference in the size of the holes we each dug was astonishing! I think he left more than a little jealous!! Soon you'll be on the right side of that situation!
