Just acquired one of these from a US surplus store and thought I would give it a try and retire my old prismatic M73
The induction damping is just as good as the oil damped British version but has the advantage of being able to operate in more extreme conditions and can cope with wider declination angles, so can be used worldwide.
Compared to a Silva, a Recta, a Suunto and a Chinese Brunton copy it is spot on.
Can any US servicemen can confirm date of manufacture for me? It has 13 07 03 stamped inside the lid. Does this mean made 2013? The tritium is still pretty bright.
