About this item
- TRUE DISCRIMINATION MODE - This metal detector can detect metals including iron, aluminum, gold, bronze, silver and their articles in all-metal mode. Just press the button, you can simply set the target range Up to 7.1’’ inches deep or eliminate the metal you don’t want. Then, you can accurately find the certain metal you want. The crossed frame is for items eliminated and two 9V alkaline batteries are required
- HIGHER SENSITIVE & WATERPROOF SEARCH COIL - The bigger the search coil is, the higher the sensitivity. The increased size of the search coil to 10 inches makes metal detecting MORE EFFICIENT. And the WATERPROOF stem and coil enable you to use our metal explorer underwater, especially suitable for outdoor activities, on the beach or in the stream. But it is should be noted that the control box is not waterproof
- MORE INTUITIVE LCD CONTROL BOX - A control box with LCD will simplify your metal detecting a lot. The detection mode, sensitivity level, battery condition, and volume level can be known at a glance. An arrow displayed below the target icon will clearly tell you detecting a object. The depth of the target is also displayed. Compared to the knob and dial, button and LCD are obviously more accurate and convenient
- P/P FUNCTION & DISTINCTIVE AUDIO PROMPT - There are distinctive audio tones in our metal detector for different types of metal. So after a period of time use, you can tell what type of metal you've detected just by audio tones. And the P/P function enables you to pinpoint a target accurately. Operating steps have been written in the manual which comes with the metal finder. All we have done is let you find the target more easily

Product Description
RM RICOMAX GC-1028:
As the classic model of RM RICOMAX, GC-1028 metal detector is a great tool for both rookies and old hands.
Ready for the journey of treasure detecting? Here are some tips for you:
--- COULDN’T SPOT THE TARGET OBJECT --
The accuracy may be affected by the following factors:
a. The depth of the target. In order to uncover the deeply buried metals, you need to turn up the SENS level. However, metals over 9 inches underground may not be detected.
b. The size of the target. Tiny metals, for instance needles, cannot be easily detected. In this case, you can try to turn up the sensitivity or lower the DISC value.
c. The way you search. You may miss a target if you walk too fast.PLEASE DO DOT SWING THE SEARCH COIL AS IF IT WERE A PENDULUM.
--- THE METAL DETECTOR KEEPS BEEPING ---
a. On highly mineralized land, the detector may keep beeping even if there is no metal. In this case, you can decrease the sensitivity or increase the DISC value on the meter of metal detector. Meanwhile, please keep the search coil a certain distance away from the ground.
b. In the area full of trashy metal, the metal detector may keep beeping. In this case, you can set DISC to 50 and most nails or small pieces of iron will be eliminated.
c. Metallic digging tools will also affect detection if they are near the search coil. So it's better to put them not too close.
Enjoy a good time of treasure hunting with GC-1028 Metal Detector!

I really like that this metal detector utilizes an LCD panel that actually gives you an estimate about what is it is detecting before you take the time and effort to dig into the ground. The LCD panel is also useful in many other ways, as it gives you a depth estimate and even tells you how your battery life is looking. I especially love that feature as there’s nothing worse than wanting to use a device only to find it is dead.
Setting the detector up was very easy. You really just have to connect a small handful of parts, insert 2 9V batteries, and you’re good to go. The package even contains a small shovel for digging up your loot. A nice touch.
The Bounty Hunter metal detector has an analog discrimination gauge which in all honesty is just a pain to use. I love the discrimination feature that this detector features and have found it to be pretty accurate. It also emits different tones depending on what it detects. I tested out the detector with a few different types of metal, including a gold wedding ring, and was impressed to find that the detector was able to point that out to me. I now know that I have a powerful tool to use if myself or a loved one ever loses a valuable piece of jewelry.

Update: It picked up the glasses in 12 inches of snow. Saved a lot of money on new glasses!
Off to the backwoods, we go and it wasn't long before my Ricomax began alerting us to something buried. One of the various features that my Ricomax has is the 3 different tones it makes when it detects metal. Each tone indicates finding different types of metals. Once you've read the Owner Manual and then hear the tones, before you start digging, you've got a very good idea of the type metal you're going to find.
I'm a Medically Retired Deputy Sheriff here in South Carolina, I sustained a severe back injury in 2013 and had to retire. With that being said, finding a Metal Detector that wasn't heavy but still offered the things that a high-end detector costs, was one of the selling points I was looking for. My Ricomax looked great on paper, but the true test is when I got the opportunity to use it "in the field". I patiently awaited my children's arrival from school, we assembled it and off we went. I was blown away at how light my Ricomax Metal Detector is. It literally put zero strain on my back, which allowed me to spend more time searching.
Though we didn't locate any buried treasure, we did locate an old Bottle Cap. Although it was just a Bottle Cap, I wish y'all could've seen my children's excited looks.
Purchasing my Ricomax Metal Detector was a very smart purchase. Even if we never locate buried treasure worth billions, seeing my children get so excited about unearthing something is something that could never have a value placed on it.
Also, even though it was our very first time utilizing a Metal Detector, I knew that my children were going to put it through its paces. I allowed all 4 of my Sons and my 1 little Princess to take turns, and though I told them to be careful, kids are going to be kids.
In conclusion, my Ricomax Metal Detector definitely gets the, "Crawford Stamp of Approval", in all categories. My plan is to purchase a Metal Detector for all of my children, and I can assure you that I'll purchase nothing besides Ricomax Metal Detectors from this point on.
