Well made GI compass

This compass is expensive but I wanted a sturdy compass for hiking in the woods and this one didn't disappoint. It's solidly made - almost unbreakable - easy to read and comes with a large carrying strap, making it difficult to lose or misplace. If you have money to spend then this is highly recommended.

Pros
  • High marks for support and durability from testers
Cons
  • Some bugs

Not quite what I had when I was on active duty

Not quite what I had when I was on active duty. But that's not enough to deduct a star. Of course, it's been about 24 years since I came out. It's solid and points north every time. If I were using every day to navigate at night and trying to remain undetected, I would choose the Tritium Compass.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • There are problems

Just like in my army!

Don't waste your time and don't risk your life on a cheap compass or GPS that may become useless. This is a dependable item that you can count on and will serve you for many years to come. I wish I had mine 30 years ago, but it's as close as I can get without paying for an expensive tritium version. Don't waste money on it!

Pros
  • Great for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure
