Aluminium Military Lensatic Compass

Description: This aluminium Military Lensatic Marching Compass easily folds to fit in your pocket.  This highly accurate compass has a liquid-damped compass card with a luminous dial that can be easily read at night.  The compass card has both the standard 0 - 360 degree scale, as well as the 0 - 64 Mil scale (one yard at 1,000 yards).  Also, this compass has a standard bezel with two yellow lines at 45-degree angles.  The bezel rotates with detents every 3 degrees so you can change the heading reference a known amount without looking at the compass.  To allow for the simultaneous viewing of the magnetic heading when taking a sight, the front sight has a magnifier.  A second magnifier assists in reading the magnetic heading when direct viewing from above.  The marching compass has a straight edge with a standard 1:50,000 map scale when unfolded flat.  The compass measures 3 inches (7.6 cm) long, 2 1/4 inches (5.7 cm) wide, 1 inch (2.5 cm) thick, and weighs only 3.4 ounces (96 grams).  To protect this compass there is a durable cast aluminium case painted black.
