Description: This is a lightly used United States Government issued compass. It is COMPLETE with the original nylon case and lanyard. This is the same compass a U.S. Army Green Beret or a U.S. Navy Seal would have been ROUTINELY issued during the time this compass was manufactured in 1984. This compass is the real deal! What you get here would be hard to beat if one needs a highly dependable compass. This compass is dated by the manufacturer 18 SEPT 84. This compass works perfectly for direction and navigation purposes. The night "glow factor," which is powered by the controlled radioactive material sealed within the compass, has seen its useful life expired, and that self glow is no longer in function. However, just as a "button battery" would need proper disposal, so would this compass. This compass will enable the user to acquire exact forward and "back azimuth" directions. Whether in the sparsely populated high country or other wilderness areas, this compass is indispensable. It could be a lifesaver! This compass, of course, has the eye magnifier, which also serves to lock the dial movement when in the "closed" position. The compass has a 5 inch "straight edge" when the compass is fully opened. The metal closure device serves as the thumb mechanism to steady the compass when in operation. This compass is metal and solidly built to government specifications. Whether one purchases this compass for functionality or historical purposes, this compass will be an authentic prized possession for sure. Please check out the attached photos. The items pictured are the EXACT items you will receive. This includes the compass, nylon compass case, and lanyard. Your satisfaction is 100% guaranteed. I strive for the same or next business day shipping when possible. Thank you very much. Semper Fi..........First Sergeant FREE SHIPPING
