But yes, calling a Kiwi an Aussie is a big insult! ?

 

Sorry, Phrunt I forgot you were from New Zealand.

New Zealand and Australia are two places on my bucket list.

I was all set up for a 30 day trip to Australia in 2020.  I had bought my tickets in 2019.  Then CO-VID hit.  I couldn't go to Australia, then Virgin Australia went bankrupt and I lost $4000 in airfare.

That hurt.

I like it Doc, nice going. Would like this camo for the 6000. 

You mean a Camo Cover for the GPZ6000 like this?

It's on the way when the Axiom covers are shipped.  In the first run we did the Blue Camo to match the Color of the GPX6000 because Minelab collaborated with us on that machine.  They were a tremendous help. and they wanted a color that would compliment the machine.  So we went with the blue Camo which looks great.  However, I personally want something a little more stealthy like the Aussie Digital Green Camo.

Digital Camo is going to be our go to color from now on.  It has been exceptionally well recevied.

Surprised it’s so popular.  For me, I avoid Camo on my detector gear because I want to be able to find it again if I intentionally or unintentionally leave it behind in the field (like if I have to go back to my vehicle to fetch something).  I guess some folks find it useful for keeping a low profile, or something?

I like it Doc, the only thing missing for me personally is a little nugget bottle zip up bit on the side like the DD leather covers have, my reason for this is prior to having a cover with this I used to store my gold bottle in my pocket, and one day I found 7 grams including a 4.2 gram nugget, and while pulling my scoop out of my pocket I must have also unknowingly also pulled this little plastic bottle out of my pocket too and lost in the grass.  I didn't realize I lost it until about 20 minutes later when walking back to the car.  Had I had a little zip up bottle holder spot on my cover this wouldn't have happened.  I need my bottle on me to put my finds in so my backpack isn't viable as I just dump it somewhere for my food and drink and go back to it when I need it so my bottle can't go in there.

I don't want to rely on wearing clothes that have zip up pockets or something, it's easier just to have a cover with a bottle holder zip up pocket.

Fortunately JW and I went back at night with torches and found my bottle but I've been so much more careful since always putting my bottle into that little zip up side pocket straight after loading it with nuggets ?

Other than that your cover is perfect and looks great.

My pants have two pockets. One for bottle only, the other for whatever. Problem solved.
