Found a gun & a ring at the Beach Today

LOL (made you look) well if that's what you call either one of them. Hit the beach early and there was already two guys searching the dry sand. I mean it had only been light 10 minutes and they were already there!!

Since I search the water it didn't really bother me, but that was slow also. Later on I did notice a fellow and he was in the water and had a Excalibur, so I knew he knew what he was doing. The problem was I had already searched the area he was in. We met later and it turned out to be diggerdan from Florida. We talked a while, a real nice guy. But then everyone on the forum is nice so it didn't surprise me. After I told him I had already searched were he was, he laughed and said now he knew why he didn't find anything.

Whatever this ring had in it is long gone, was a junk ring anyhow, does it still count as #16 (ha ha)

Re: Found a 357 mag & a large diamond ring at Beach Today=That's not what I saw!

Diggerdan hey? :-)
How about Chuck,Diggin'it in Florida??? :-)
Now, can you elaborate some on how your BHID hit on that gun? :-)
I'll say one thing, that penny you had, shows that the trough we were hunting cut down into the sand a few years! :-)
Actually, most of your coins had been in the water for some time!
I gotta hit Casperson pretty soon, a guy told me it was pretty hot! :-)
Ya, lets meet up!
How about tomorrow morning at Casperson at 9am?
One thing you can count on with me-if I say i'll be there, i'll be there, there is another thing you can usually count on-i'll be late and have to leave early! :) :) :) That's life as a painting & Pressure Cleaning contractor! But, I do get to go play most anytime I want! Even more so, now that the economy has me not making any $$$$ :-(
I'll bring a 14kt gold ring I found the other day and we will bury it in wet sand. I'd like to see how my Excal does compared to your BHID. You certainly have the lighter weight machine, so if the BHID wins, i'll switch! :-) I may be ugly, but my granddaughter makes up for it! See for yourself! :-)

NICE RING!!!!! :thumbsup:
 
Re: Found a gun & a ring at the Beach Today

I'm going to throw a guess out on how he hit the plastic gun. There's probably a metal spring that pushes the trigger out when you pull it in. Am I right? Did I win the big prize?

Cool finds!,
