5.0 out of 5 stars Great deal on sturdy prismatic compass, April 21, 2011
This review is from: Huntington MG1 Military Bearing / Lensatic Compass, Professionally Liquid-Dampened, Full Metal Body with Bearing Prism / Lens System (K4580 GR US) (Misc.)
In addition to being handy to check one's general bearing, this compass also has a sighting window and a viewing prism to make very precise measurements of the bearing of landmarks. A bubble level ensures the compass is flat and free to rotate. The compass also comes with thumb ring, lanyard, and sturdy green canvas carrying pouch.

5.0 out of 5 stars Compass is my copilot, March 30, 2012
This review is from: Huntington MG1 Military Bearing / Lensatic Compass, Professionally Liquid-Dampened, Full Metal Body with Bearing Prism / Lens System (K4580 GR US) (Misc.)
I agree with everything the other reviewers have said. As someone who's done a fair amount of hiking and orienteering, I can attest that this is a very high-quality compass, functional and durable for the road. It's quite portable too. While the price is on the higher end, it's worth the investment if you're going to use it a lot.

5.0 out of 5 stars Must have for serious campers, February 17, 2012
This review is from: Huntington MG1 Military Bearing / Lensatic Compass, Professionally Liquid-Dampened, Full Metal Body with Bearing Prism / Lens System (K4580 GR US) (Misc.)
For serious campers,a lensatic compass allows one to measure or layout magnetic bearings. The compass is built like a tank- it is made from hard, durable plastic, and is extremely sturdy. So feel free to try smashing it against a wall. The compass won't break, but I bet you that you will probably end up tearing a muscle in your shoulder blade. This is how frickin' sturdy this compass is.

The only downside for this compass is that it is quite heavy when measured up against a "cheaper" and more "generic" compass. Then again, it is a lensatic compass, and so far I haven't found a light one yet.

Overall, I highly recommend it. If you are a military guy, then you are going to love this compass.
