Review: Excellent land navigation tool. - This compass is exactly what I was looking for in a Mils reference vs. degrees.
Review: Mils NOT degrees - Don’t buy this compass unless you are specifically wanting one for military Mills measurements. It has degrees on the back of the compass that you can flip over and look at. However, the magnetic needle won won’t work with the inclinometer upside down. If you want degrees by the Ranger 2.0. If you want military use this is an excellent compass.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice
*by C***S on May 24, 2024*

Love the compass for what I use it for. Can in broken on the edge and no pieces could be found inside the packaging but still used it on my last trip. Stores away nice on my chest carrier. The dials are easy to adjust but will maintain there position. Good value for the cost.
