Pioneer 202
LITTLE BUT MIGHTY
James Whittemore in Rumford ,ME USA -I have the Pioneer 202 its the same thing as the Quick Draw II. What a metal detector! This metal detector keeps up with the big boys on the block. My friends with there Minlabs and White's can't beleave how good it works. Its a DEEP coin finding metal detector. My best advice is the more you use it, the more you learn about it, the more nice stuff you'll find! My best coin so far is 1924 D VF-20 Penny. I hope this helps. Happy hunting!!

Pioneer 202/Quick Draw II a Bargain
George D in El Paso, TX -I received one for Christmas and have had a lot of fun with it. It performs well, has very good sensitivity and depth, and the metal discrimination is nice. I bought the 4" Gold Coil from Amazon.com for $29 with free shipping. It works well and is good for "trashy" areas, i.e. areas that have multiple targets close together. The smaller search coil allows you to pick up one at a time. The only drawbacks are that it does not have a pinpoint function and no volume adjustment (I recommend headphones). Check out Kellyco.com for super package deals!

Happy customer
Dogfish in WI USA -I just got a Bounty Hunter Quick Draw II, this is the same as a Bounty Hunter Pioneer 202. I have found this detector to be easy to use, and it performs even better than I expected it would. If you are looking at detectors on ebay, I would suggest looking at Amazon.com, that is where I got mine, it was cheaper, and it was brand new, and I knew I had support. Happy Hunting

Bounty Hunter 202 A Real Work Horse
Bobby in tennessee -I bought a bounty hunter 202 to see for myself how good they work. I took it out in my yard were I had hunted with my more expensive 300 to 800 dollar detectors. The first good signal showed dime at 10 inch down. I figured that has to be a false reading. I dug it up and there it was a 1931 murcury dime with a S stamped on the back of it. I also found a sterling silver ring later that day at a park that I also thought I had combed over. The bounty hunter has proven itself to me. I liked it so much I sold my more expensive detectors that I think is so funny that people get sucked into the name brand like myself. I think the bounty hunter 202 and fisher have something in common as to how well they work. By the way Texas instruments bought fisher out. The fisher F4 coil will enterchange with some newer bounty hunters like the great 202. Happy hunting B.W.

pioneer 202
Roy in Vermilion Oh. -I've had my 202 foe several years now, just never had much time to use it. The oldest things I've found are a couple of old dog licenses.
Yesterday I went to one of the beaches here along Lake Erie. I didn't find anything on the beach, but did find some coins in a grassy area. In one spot my display said a quarter 8" down, a Good signal, so I started to dig. About 4" down I found a 1963 penny. I thought to myself, YOU LYING SACK OF S/?;#! Before I covered my hole I thought I'd double check, It said quarter 6" down.
I dug a bit more and there it was 1988 quarter, Just above that hole it read, dime 6" down and there it was. I gotta learn to trust this thing!!
It is very accurate in depth, and what is there. Someday I'll find somethin' good.
