Either one is a good choice. Both are easily learned and at an affordable price.

The Sidewinder is old tech. and the much newer Silver Umax would be a much better choice. But I'd take a good look at a new detector like the Outlaw.

.... Yes i will agree with Sandman on that .....The Silver is newer tech............ But the new outlaw would also be a good detector.........

New MD?

After 5 weeks with the Outlaw, I would definitely buy another if this one went MIA. Being able to swap coils is amazingly and I am just now finding out how deep, tight and useful that big DD coil is.


Hi im thinking of getting a newer detector as the ones i use are vintage whites,although they both work and get the job done i was thinking about getting a tesoro, i can get a used sidwinder or a almost new silver umax, what do you fellows think would be the best choice
