Product Information:

Don’t be fooled by imposters. All Garrett products are designed, assembled, tested for quality control and shipped from the company headquarters in Garland, Texas, USA. Garrett’s ISO 9001 certified Quality Management System emblems are an outward reflection of the true quality within.

Metal detector products from several manufacturers have been copied and manufactured by Chinese manufacturers. These are typically sold by Internet retailers. Garrett is most concerned about counterfeits, as our goal is to have satisfied customers who have not been tricked or cheated.

Metal detectors with the Garrett brand name and labeled “Made in China” or have no country of origin, are counterfeit. All Garrett hobby and security metal detectors have the Garrett Made in America seal either on the product itself, on the packaging, or both. Any “Garrett” product that is shipped from China is definitely a counterfeit.

Spot a fake:
- The authentic Pro-Pointer AT weighs 185 grams.
- The authentic serial number will not rub off.
- The authentic serial number will match the serial number in the battery compartment.
- The authentic AT beeps instantly when the off-on button is pressed.
- Counterfeit AT's usually don't have vibrate only (silent) mode.
- Counterfeits beep when the off-on button is pressed and released.
