What kind of backpack is needed for a metal detector. About a large backpack for a metal detector

Hello friends!

I love tactical equipment and, I’ll tell you, not just like that, there’s a good reason for that! In addition, I use a lot of such tactical equipment for detecting, since what are the advantages of tactical equipment? From the main ones:

1. Convenience. In tactical equipment, maximum comfort is observed during long transitions in the most adverse environments.
2. Practicality. With constant movement and being away from comfortable habitats, we must be sure that each piece of equipment we have has a specific purpose of use and carries the maximum usefulness and functionality.
3. Reliability. Any of the things that we use outside the home (on hikes, on a dig, in transitions from point to point) must be reliable and not let us down in difficult times. Go to any boutique where your wife buys and go into the forest in this - you will understand that the money was paid in vain, for a holiday and for a hike, clothes and equipment should be different.

Therefore, I am constantly in search of usefulness that can be useful to any person who leads an active lifestyle, I test everything on my own and check that there is not the slightest jamb in the equipment. Therefore, you, my friends, will never see on the pages of my blog some unnecessary thing or a review of something impractical and unnecessary for us, but you will only see what has passed the “selection round” in my experience. In this case, I was interested in finding a suitable backpack for small trips for one day, with a volume in the region of 20-30 liters. Of the equipment produced in Russia, there is the UMBTS series backpack, already famous for many, which is included in the 6Sh112 kit. Patrol backpack, 25 liters. I started watching the Internet and came across a review of one guy from LiveJournal about a similar backpack, but produced by St. Petersburg "TechIncom", myself link to review. The backpack interested me and I decided, after reading the review, to take a similar backpack, but produced by Kamuflazh.ru, in order to order both the Gorka-3 suit for the fall and the backpack itself at the same time. Two in one, save on shipping. 🙂 So let's go.

By the way, the guys from Camouflage.ru issued a promo code especially for my readers, so if you want to save 7% on your purchase, then use a special promo code:

Patrol satchel for 25 l from Camouflage.ru

A good satchel does not lie on the road. Why can it be useful in our case? Everything is simple. We arrived at a point, for example, a forest or a large field. They parked the car, covered it from unwanted eyes (what if?) and uncovered it. We collected the instruments, took shovels, took out a map or GPS with coordinates where to go and wandered off. You can walk for a long time, I used to only walk a few kilometers to the detecting point, because it was no longer possible to drive closer! And the place was noble, in the war, in the 44th year the battle was strong! How can you not dig up a place like this? And we don’t go on foot in order to return to the car in a couple of hours, it’s better to take everything useful and necessary on daylight hours with a cop. What could it be? Yes, anything, but only the most necessary in our business:

• A set of spare batteries - for a metal detector and a pinpointer.
• Snack - sandwiches, dry food, a box with homemade and ready-made food (underline as necessary).
• A supply of water and a thermos with hot tea / coffee.
• An additional coil to the device (also an option in case of “what if?”).
• Additional jacket/jacket/t-shirt/gloves/socks - change/spare clothing for changeable weather.
• First aid kit.
• Extra space for swag.
• Who cooks/warms up food, he puts Esbitka (mini oven) and a pot with spoons/forks.

And this is just a small part of the list! At least this is what I usually put in if the exit is planned away from the roads and not so easily accessible by off-road car. In this regard, 6Sh112 came in handy.

The backpack is quite simple and almost ingenious in design. In the center we have the main department, where you can put more goodies, with a volume of 20 liters. If you pull the upper part, you lose about 2.3 more liters, this is if the satchel is half empty. On the sides, we can afford, each about 2.6 liters, almost a three-liter jar, but tight!

The main section is held on by two drawstrings, no zippers, which is also good - we open quietly and quickly, it is also better repaired than a zipper, especially in the field. Another plus of such a system is additional protection from moisture and from uninvited guests in the form of ticks and other insects, it is important if there is lard in a newspaper or sandwiches in paper inside. Although, someone may not hurt the extra protein!

To demonstrate the volume of the main compartment - an example is taken from a real story. They were on the spy, the comrade picked up the German helmet, but there was nowhere to put it. In a find bag? It doesn’t fit, but there are coins and other metal, there is no bag in his pocket, so he took the device, a shovel, a helmet in his other hand and stomped to the car through the thick of the forest. But he could calmly put the cap in a backpack and look further, maybe there was something else next to the cap. And not to run back and forth every time to carry the finds? And if you need to run a kilometer-another-third-fifth? In general, according to my observation, three German helmets will definitely fit into such a satchel, it’s convenient, right?

In the example above, the photo shows my M34 cap, produced in 1935. Of course, the attic has been preserved, of course, all the dug caps have long been sold.

Manufacturer's tag. Material 100% nylon is an analogue of Cordura fabric, according to the manufacturer, the density is 900 Den. Everything is simple here: such a fabric is necessary to obtain maximum strength and durability of the product, which is why most of the clothing, equipment and equipment for the military and relevant civilian structures are made of nylon, where increased quality and reliability are required, and this is precisely our case. Go to detect and tear cheap backpacks from Aliexpress or the nearest market, which will quickly get wet, lose color and one fine day (on the second or third) will simply tear at an unnecessary moment - do you really want this? I am not, because nylon is an indicator for us, always look at the composition and material of the product.

There are two compartments in the backpack valve. The first one (pictured above) is more suitable for storing various small things, you can put the same documents or a map, for example. The fabric holds moisture well, which means it shouldn’t leak quickly, but it’s still better to put something useful and flat, it’s better (for reliability) in additional covers for moisture insulation.

The second compartment can also be used to store various things, but as an idea, you can sew some kind of rain cover to the sling. It will be possible to quickly and easily open the pocket and cover the entire satchel with a cover, this is if it is pouring heavily, and it will take a long time to reach the destination.

Closed pocket on the backpack flap and a sling to hold the backpack in your hand. I would wrap it with paracord too, but in general, it is quite comfortable in gloves and does not cut the hand. In general, out of old habit, I don’t use such holders, I always hold the satchel by one of the straps in order to quickly either put the satchel somewhere or put the satchel on my back. Time for us is money. The holder is useful if you suddenly need to throw a backpack on a rope from one coast to another, or for climbing buildings and mountains. In our case, this is not the main thing.

Back! What is the main thing in the back of any backpack and knapsack? This, of course, is the maximum possible ventilation, so that in the summer in the heat the back does not flood with sweat, which leads to discomfort. In this case, the task was partly solved by additional material and, as can be seen in the photo above, special channels for ventilation, which are stitched on a typewriter. This helps to remove steam and moisture, in general, it helps quite well - I have not yet seen satchels at such a price that fogging of the back is minimal. We are not talking about a backpack priced under 200 euros and branded Tasmanian Tiger, or a little more than 100 euros and branded 5.11 😉 It performs its task well and this is the main thing.

On the straps there are additional slings with fastex fastening. The task of such straps is clear - with the correct packing of the satchel (correct balance and location of the weight), having fastened two straps through the fastex, it will be much more convenient for you to carry the satchel, the weight will not be felt, the straps will not fidget and the satchel will not hinder your movements when walking fast and when changing positions and slopes. But what if?

The side pockets also close with fastex.

It's good that the side pockets are equipped with a drawstring and a waterproof neck. The side pocket is quite voluminous, for example, I put my panama there in the same color and manufactured by Camouflage.ru

In another pocket, I easily fit a case for my Garmin Virb Ultra 30 action camera. In addition to the camera, the case contains a set of mounts and two additional batteries. Slowly we are shooting different cool videos! 🙂

Mint cap M34 manufactured in 1935 and a satchel. Let me remind you that despite the total volume of the knapsack of 25 liters, the main compartment can fit up to three caps with balaclavas, and if without balaclavas, then more. We just put one in the other, this is in case there is more swag at the bold point.

Dimensions for comparison.

The same two necks with drawstrings on the main compartment of the backpack. They close firmly - the mosquito will not fly by! 😉

Who does not know what a large number of sewn slings are - these are MOLLE mounts. Uniform military standard for attachments, allows you to easily attach additional pockets, pouches and pouches. For example, you can attach a pouch with a first aid kit, a pocket for a flask or an additional pocket for maps - it all depends on your imagination, the availability of pouches and the tasks assigned to you. Versatility is the main advantage for MOLLE mounts, because you yourself are free to choose the place where to hang this or that pouch.

I completely forgot - at the bottom of the satchel, both in the main section and in the side pockets, there are additional holes for draining water. A trifle, but nice! If you choose a backpack, then be sure to take it with such holes, because if you fall into a swamp or stream, even if by accident, you won’t have to shake out the backpack and drain the water from it - let the water go through such holes. It is clear that things inside will have to be dried separately, but trust my experience, even if the water drains and the things are damp, than if they float in this water in your backpack. This applies to if you put a wet thing in a backpack - water will drain from it a lot and for a long time, but in this case it will not linger.

And additional slings from below, it is convenient to hang (cling) a rug or mattress on them, which, in general, is the same thing. The scope for imagination is limitless.

A-TACS FG camouflage - why this color scheme?

The coloring is relatively new and not as familiar and recognizable to an ordinary person as the same Flektarn, Oliva or Multicam. I chose this colorway specifically for testing and answering the question: how effective will the A-TACS FG be in my lane, because I live in an area where pine and coniferous forests often turn into green fields and deciduous forest. Flecktarn is good in such a pine forest, for example, but for the field it will be like an eyesore, Multicam, IMHO, this is more of a desert-mountain-urban camouflage, yes, it is good and convenient, but it has become too pop in our time. Who cares - here everyone is his own master.

For example, I put a backpack on pine branches. In general, if you look closely, you can see well, but what happens if you move away?

Live, it is less noticeable than in the photo, of course, but in general, the advantage of A-TAKS is to break the silhouette of the object. In this case, it is no longer clear whether this is a satchel or someone hid in the bushes. And if you move it from greenery to a shady place and where there are more dry pines? Or put a little lower, close to the ground? Will disappear completely. Let's see, maybe in the future I will do a small comparative test of A-TAKS with Flektarn, for example, it will be interesting to see the result. 🙂

More reviews will be added soon. Next in line - new metal detectors, equipment, pictures of the finds will be - where without it! But I collect all the reviews.

I have repeatedly written about a backpack for a detective, but since this is a very interesting topic, and the overall quality of a detective depends on the backpack (after all, you will have to wear everything on yourself, and not for one hour), so I will go over very briefly about what should be a backpack for a detective. Of course, I won’t tell you everything, since it’s impossible to know everything, but I just don’t pay attention to some points. But, if these tips are useful to you, that's good.

The first thing you should pay attention to when choosing a backpack is its size. Not for capacity in liters, but for dimensions. The main thing here is that the disassembled metal detector enters the backpack (it is enough to know the length of the longest rod), the large-diameter search coil fits normally, and, well, your shovel. Everything is ambiguous with a shovel, because you can always take a small infantry shovel if a large device does not fit.

What should be a backpack for a cop

The next item I pay attention to is the color of the backpack. Everything is simple here: bright backpacks, in my opinion, are less suitable, but backpacks in khaki or camouflage colors are just right.

The presence of at least three external pockets in which you can put the most necessary items, what you may urgently need: documents, first aid kit, and so on. There are backpacks without external pockets, so think about everything in advance.

Some backpacks can also be carried on the shoulders (on the straps) and a carrying handle is made in the form of a bag. Sometimes, such a pen greatly simplifies life, although it is not decisive.

The density of the fabric and the quality of the seams. It is difficult to check the seams when buying, but, as a rule, you can feel the fabric before purchasing a backpack, pay attention to the fittings, the quality of zippers, locks, whether there are protruding threads, and so on. Have looked - have drawn conclusions.

On some backpacks, the back is soft, on others it is denser. With a tighter back, it will be more comfortable, especially on long transitions.

Ideally, the presence of a belt fastening with adjustment (so that you can loosen and tighten) and the same guy lines on the straps of the backpack. If they are, it will be easier to fit the backpack to fit you. It is especially good if there are also tightening straps, thanks to which you can safely pull off the assembled backpack so that nothing dangles inside.

The presence of slings on which you can hang other equipment, for a detective, in my opinion, is of little relevance. But if they are, it will definitely not be worse.

There are backpacks that open only from the top, and there are those that can be easily decomposed into two parts. The second option is preferable, since it is more convenient to take everything out and put it back, and it will be easier to clean such a backpack. Ideally, if the interior of the backpack has at least two compartments that can be divided into clean and dirty zones.

It is advisable to have a special rain cover on the backpack (sometimes they are included with the backpack).

If there are too many Velcro on the backpack (nowadays it has become fashionable to produce backpacks with Velcro, on which you can stick various emblems), I personally try to find a backpack without Velcro, because when making my way through the forest or bushes, a lot of different vegetation will gather on the Velcro. On the other hand, you can immediately purchase some kind of pad on Velcro, and forget about this addition.

Adequately estimate the weight of the backpack. It is clear that one cannot go far with a heavy burden.

If the backpack also has internal ties (or fixing tapes) - this is very good, since you can fix some things right inside (rod, reel, and so on)

Well, one more thing that I pay attention to when choosing a backpack: if you go to detect only for a few hours, it is advisable to take so that you can collect belongings for 2-3 days of autonomy. And suddenly there is a desire (and it will definitely appear) to go out for a couple of days ...

But the most important thing in a backpack, in my opinion, is:

1. Backpack size.
2. Backpack color.
3. The strength of the straps (you always need to carry a thread with a needle with you - the straps sometimes break at the most inopportune moment).

On the last warm autumn day, the mushroom picker went to the forest. From the equipment, only a large backpack and a knife. I got lost safely, and in the evening frosts hit ... The mushroom picker was not at a loss, he cut two small holes in the bottom of the backpack, two more on the sides, stuffed it with dry grass, and put it on himself. Survived the night. A large backpack helped him.

For me personally, a large backpack is needed only in two cases. Or you have to walk several kilometers to the cop point. Or I'm going to cop in someone else's car. In both cases, you must have everything with you. Nobody wants to go back to the car. Moreover, in the second case, the two of us will have to return to the car, me and the owner of the car.

And if the backpack is large, it should start with a shovel. Shortened bayonet Fiskars fits with the head. There is a separate strap for attaching a shovel.

What is the best way to place a shovel in a backpack? Before, I used to carry the shovel blade down. He came up with various devices so that the blade would pierce the bottom of the backpack - wooden ones, from a rubber hose, just wrap it with clothes.

At some point, I got tired, and began to immerse the shovel with the blade up. Such an armored back for the head. What if the hunters shoot in the back, even though the head remains intact))

When I was poor and greedy, I went to detect with two metal detectors - ICQ and Proshka. The Garrett AT PRO is an excellent metal detector, but I only had a large coil for the Garrett ACE 250. Greed did not allow me to come to detect a hundred kilometers away, see good finds, and not finish the point to the maximum. I was ready to carry an extra metal detector with me. And I had to carry only the second coil, because of poverty I did not buy more.

Tale from life. One digger got to the dig by public transport. Big backpack, rush hour, kind words from passengers in the back. A digger arrived, opened his backpack, took out a metal detector, and… the armrest was broken. It has long been written in the rules of detecting that the armrest of a metal detector begins to break even in a backpack.

I probably have the simplest requirements for a backpack. So that the shovel fits inside (there are backpacks in which the shovel is outside). Inside there are more universal mounts. Preferably a place for a couple of detectors. Plus, free space for other equipment.

Definitely external pockets. By the way, it is in this pocket, if desired, that the second sapper shovel (Christmas tree) is placed. And it turns out in fact - one backpack, two metal detectors, two shovels. Grab and run))

Tale from life. The digger bought a large backpack. He loved him very much. Reinforced the bottom and straps. Inside, I sewed additional compartments and mounts for everything that he only had. Even the drinking system was in this backpack (following the example of cycling backpacks). Waterproof compartment for documents, money, and phone. A digger's dream... The day came when this backpack was stolen from him. Along with all the good stuff. A large backpack is good, but trying to fit absolutely everything in it is not worth it.

And for me personally, at least one horizontal strap is required on the backpack - to cling to a pin and a knife. The pinpointer can also be placed on a vertical strap, but in this version it dangles a lot, it is better on a horizontal one.

Did you hold two hundred E2 dimes in your hands at the same time? The pleasure is still something, not everyone will keep it)) A story from life. The digger picked up a treasure of nickels. I stuffed my backpack with coins, picked it up and ... the bottom of the backpack fell out. And it gets better. I stuffed my backpack with coins, but they do not end. Are you ready for such happiness?

On a large backpack, side handles are a must. On both sides, can be carried by two.

And most importantly for a big backpack... I'm on the spot. He took out a shovel, took out a metal detector. And now I don't need a big backpack. The side braces and height reduction are a real plus.

Why did the mushroom picker cut two small holes in the bottom of his backpack? For the eyes, of course. Keeping your head warm is just as important as your torso. Side holes for hands. Can you imagine what this mushroom picker looked like?))

All about backpacks. When they stuff a backpack with coins, but they don’t run out - (who haven’t seen, check out the photo, this is not given to every digger).

P.S. Pay attention ➨ ➨ ➨ Bomb theme - . Take a look, you won't regret it.

↓↓↓ And now let's move to the comments and find out the opinion of experts. Scroll the page down ↓↓↓, there are reviews of diggers, MD specialists, additional information and clarifications from the authors of the blog ↓↓↓

This article is a continuation of the topic of what I saw useful and necessary when visiting the MDRegion store. Of course, here I am not even trying to touch on a complete description of the metal detectors available. I can only say that almost all major, serious world manufacturers with their most popular models of devices are represented in full force.

Of course I couldn't get past my favorites cop backpacks. I myself prefer and have long used, of course, the so-called treasure hunt backpack or as it is sometimes called a cop-backpack. The shovel (shortened FISKARS) is hidden for the time being from prying eyes. The detector requires minimal disassembly, almost all additional native coils are included, if we are talking about Turks, except perhaps for 15-inch “rudders”. The supply of water and food that fits in backpacks of this type, in my opinion, is more than sufficient. In any case, I had enough for two days in a completely autonomous mode, I also grabbed something for the dog, the only thing I had to do was attach the bowler hat to the side. Of course, I am a very unpretentious person, but I think that a supply of provisions and water for a one-day exit will suit anyone, this is in addition to a metal detector, a shovel and everything else needed directly for the detecting process. I would highly advise you to immediately purchase for such a backpack, well, or make your own cover for the blade of a shovel. Still, the “fiskar” weighs enough, and if it is also well sharpened, then sooner or later it will tear the backpack, though there is an option to stick the shovel up with the blade into the appropriate compartment, but for me it’s not very convenient, although quite acceptable.

If I were a car owner, I would probably consider a case for carrying and storing the detector from MINELAB as an option, even a 15-inch steering wheel will fit here, and the detector will not need to be disassembled. But since I don’t have transport, it’s not very suitable for long walks, but if the path is not far from the car, it’s quite a suitable thing. As far as I know, some people carry detectors in trunks without disassembling them, just in this case, such a cover is useful to protect the device from any mechanical damage during road shaking and from collisions with other contents of the trunk.

I will finish the description of the backpacks and bags I have seen like this GARRETT backpacks, I myself have never used them, but I saw them with my friends diggers. They look pretty.

And a bag for finds from XP. Completely durable and comfortable fit.

It is impossible not to stop at such a necessary thing for any user of a metal detector as cover on the “head” (control unit) of the device. I have been convinced of the benefits of which accessory more than once and have never regretted the money spent on it. Electronics is electronics getting dust and dirt does not lead to anything good. What can we say about water, of course, it won’t save you from a downpour, but with a light drizzle it will help out, and you never know, grass in dew and the like, it’s better to play it safe. Often you have to climb the bushes, wade through the thickets, and here the cover will save you from scratches and light bumps. By the way, do not forget to take it off after returning from the dig, if you had to work in conditions of high humidity. And it won’t hurt to wipe the cover itself, and the control unit needs to “breathe” even if no water directly hits it, in order to avoid condensation. I heard that some consider such protection on the “head” not particularly necessary, but practice shows that they are greatly mistaken.

We continue to consider the useful equipment of a treasure hunter and today we will pay attention to the backpack. There are a lot of varieties and models and it will not be easy to choose. In this article I will try to give some tips on choosing a backpack for your metal detector.

So which one to take?

The first and important value is color and spaciousness. Why not convenience for the digger - you ask? The answer is that a cop with a metal detector is currently on the verge of a foul, that is, it seems like it’s possible to dig, but they can always cling and solder archaeological intelligence to you.

So, in my opinion, the ideal backpack for a cop is like this:

Completely "camouflage" so that no one sees. And if they see you, they will never guess what is in the backpack.

Well, we continue:

Therefore, we take a backpack so that the shovel is completely hidden in it, that is, models when the shovel is attached with straps to the backpack, but does not close in any way. And if you consider that 90 percent of diggers use Fiskars, then its yellow handle is visible from a kilometer away. And the very fact that the shovel is visible will attract attention. Now we don’t need attention, the less people know that we are going to dig with a metal detector, the better.

Also note that there is a spacer between the compartments for the shovel and for the MD, so that the shovel does not hit the fragile parts of the detector when being carried. Although I personally always wrap the electronic unit separately, I use either polyethylene with air inserts for this (you know, many people like to burst them with their fingers), or I wrap the unit in rags / rags. So, the first thing is to hide the shovel (or make a camouflage cover specially for the shovel). By the way, especially for "fiscars" manufacturers produce covers for both the cutting part and the entire shovel. At prices - in the region of 200-300 rubles.

Next is the color of the backpack itself. If you buy, then take “camouflage” or “khaki”, with such a color you will not be seen in the field (many people dig right with a backpack, because sometimes it is dangerous to leave things unattended, especially if you are digging in a new place and there is a possibility of the appearance of “local "). That is why I also recommend “camouflaging” the yellow fiskar handle, buy a can of paint and paint it dark. If you use ICQ, then paint them too, otherwise the “secret” can be seen from a kilometer away with a yellow electronic unit 🙂

In terms of size, so that you can immediately dig in a backpack, we can recommend a height of 90 cm and a width of 25-20 cm. For the main compartments - there are options with 2 and 3 main compartments, of course, 3 is better, but if you take a minimum of , then 2 - it is both smaller and slightly lighter.

Well, now you can pay attention to convenience. By the way, many people go to dig in cars, so there’s nothing to worry about in terms of backpack indicators, but at least take an ordinary tourist one. But if you ride a bike / bus / on foot, then convenience plays an important role, because your back will instantly let you know that you bought a shitty backpack. Therefore, advice - if you buy in a store, then immediately check it there, and ask to put your model of a metal detector in a backpack immediately with a shovel, put it on your back and walk around the store, lean to the left, right, forward. And if you feel that you are comfortable, then you should take it. If there is any discomfort, try another model. They all look the same, but they feel different on the back.

Garters for a tourist rug - let them be, because sometimes we go digging and overnight. Lie down by the fire on the rug, let the stories go over a cup of tea - this is an indispensable attribute of any trip to nature.

Capacity:

So we got to her, dear. What do you take with you to the dig? A device, a shovel, definitely, then a thermos, a snack (sandwiches or a thermos with food), a bottle of water, a first aid kit, a flashlight, a knife, an ax, a camera, etc. ", such a small bag, where everything a tourist needs at once lies - all the small things listed and much more - cords, fish hooks, fishing line, survival kits, first aid kit, matches, salt, high-calorie bars, etc.). This small survival pouch can also be put all in our backpack. You never know what can happen - get lost, get lost, etc. This kit could save your life.

An excellent option is the "Yeti" model, a lot of pouches, compartments, pockets. And you can always unfasten the extra side pouches. It costs about 2500-3000 rubles. In the photo below:

As you can see, you can take a lot of things, it is on the basis of this that you choose a backpack. If you take a lot of things, then pay attention to models with side pockets, a lot of small things will fit there. Pockets are not only on the side, but also on the back, immediately on top of the shovel compartment. Such options are also suitable for those who like to take “everything you need and even more” to dig.

I think it's not worth talking about the quality of the material, you already understand that. The stronger the fabric, the longer your backpack will last. Look carefully at the "firmware" of all the details so that there are no protruding loops and threads. Everything should be neat and of high quality. now more and more often you can see on sale models of Cordura fabric with a strength of 1000 den, this is really a lot, that is, the backpack turns out to be strong and reliable.

On average, prices for normal models range from 1000 to 2500 rubles. Popular models, not particularly fancy, but tested, cost from 800 to 1200 rubles. For example, a simple and convenient open model "Pathfinder" from the manufacturer of the same name costs only 550 rubles:

If you take the model a little higher to hide the shovel, it will cost 750 rubles. Budget backpacks.

If you need more compartments and pockets, then it will come out a little more expensive. Although if you have a familiar seamstress, then she can sew for you to order purely according to your requirements - in my opinion, this is also an excellent option, and it will turn out cheaper)) And so cooler models cost 2-4 thousand rubles. For example:

Model "Cayman" worth about 2200 rubles:

Or a shortened "version" of the open type, the Leshy model, costing around 2,500 rubles:

The Leshy and Cayman models can be bought in Ukraine at the metallodetektor.com.ua store, I actually took the photo from them. Comfortable and high quality models. "Yeti" is definitely sold in Russia, ask in specialized stores selling metal detectors.

In general, look, decide, now there are such times that there is no way at all without a backpack. And one more thing - in the spring, when buying a new metal detector, you will always be presented with an elegant backpack in any store, just ask)) Good luck detecting.
