it has no batteries or headphones

if the batteries are there,
then the second change is it's sitting there going to waste.

Get out there and find us some stuff for us to look at :thumbsup:

But take headphones with :laughing7:

What is the purpose of removing the bar on the coil?

I was just having some fun and thought members would enjoy figuring out what was wrong with the picture. So Maburger - I removed the bar to see if other's would figure it out and Diggin-N-Dumps - yes, I manipulated the photograph with PaintShopProX5...

VP you gotta be retired because you have way to much time on your hands. LOL

You have a great idea though and one I might pass by the Garrett people. If it is poosible to cut that extra cross bar off I am sure it would make the coil lighter by at least 3-4 oz. When you are swinging that beast for several hours you sure feel it in the wrist and shoulder so every little bit of wieght you can loose helps. My buddy removed the cam locks to help lighten his ATP.

Take a close look at your car. Notice anything missing? It is the one out in the parking lot with "Firestone" tires.

Thats why I installed a Gizmo on mine made a world of difference in the balance

Either that dealer removes the tires and wheels to prevent theft or they just got smoked, theres more then one in that lot missing them, lol You can see the black and the white one in the background stripped too.
