All in all the f2 seems like a good detector except for build 9vs and Gold jewlr

Well i got my hands on a used f2 and its not bad. Dont see alot of gold jewlry finds with it on the forums though and build quality could have been better. Its a real clad hog ill give it that and aperantly likes silver a bit. Wish fisher would have used double AAs as well those darn 9volts are pricey oh well.
