I'm thinking the Patriot is being put out to pasture.  Hopefully FT is making room for something new.

BTW...they accept offers.  😉

I don't believe they are interested in building metal detectors anymore. I see the original Bounty Hunter line kept to sell to big box stores and the Tek and Fishers die out.

I viewed them on the First Texas ad on ebay about 4 months ago and 2 days latter they messaged me with a $180.00 offer and I took it. Arthritis has had me down but i'm gonna give it a try soon.

It is interesting that First Texas is selling off a bunch of things on their ebay store.  Some machines at half the cost of ones at Amazon.  Also lots of older parts for older machines.

Yea I bought a Tek Patriot i.e F70 from First Texas on ebay for $180 but I wish I hadn't even at that price,noisy little rascal. Prefer my T2's.

For that price you can buy a Minelab Vanquish 340 that will hunt the beaches here in Florida just as well as my Legend and CZ's.
