New to NC and the hobby

Hello everyone, New to the area, Jacksonville/Camp Lejeune area. Got a Whites metal detector from my grandfather a few years back, so my son and I are wanting to get into the hobby out here. Looking for anyone that wouldnt mind taking a few new guys out and show us the ropes. thanks!

Hows it going! Thanks for the welcome! Ive got a White's MXT tracker e-series pro I think. ive been googling all the things around here, now I need to overlay the public maps and what not to see where I can go!

The MXT is a very nice all around detector. I had an MXT Pro and traded it for a detector for my wife. I wish I still had it. I miss it. Best of luck to you with your MXT.

I would got to Onslow or Emerald Isle beach. Public parking access, there are always old guys there with detectors who would help

I'll try close by like emerald soon, onslow is off limits for metal detecting due to UXO and other stuff now. Thanks!

Welcome to the hobby of Metal Detecting....!
It's really an interest in history, isn't it?. Researching some of the pieces of relics or the coins you (will) find. It's fun...!
Owners manuals are in the internet, even for older equipment..
Good Luck and Happy Hunting!
