No problem at all Grizz, thanks for responding bro.Grizz wrote:I have my GrandPa's and it looks like yours. It's in another location now so your picture will have to stand in, if that's OK. Grizz
Thanks, good info.BrentD wrote:It is a sighting device and it has a prism set up that allows you to shoot amazingly accurate angles. Mine is an older version and doesn't have the knob which I think focuses the sighting mechanism. Mine is a fixed focus. The body is of a solid machined aluminum block. A bit heavy at times but dependable like no other.
Most of my hunting is like yours Piller.piller wrote:No picture, but a simple Coleman one that I bought at Wal Mart. I tend to hunt areas that have roads every mile or so, and just knowing North is enough.

That's the same compass that I used during my elk hunts during the 90's in Colorado. I didn't have a GPS just a topo map.Sixgun wrote:You guys can keep that old outdated junk.yea, I was a Boy Scout and my old fashioned compass saved my butt real good more than once upstate while hunting.
My Winchesters and Colts are older than anyone here but when it comes to medical technology and navigating, I'll choose modern. Thank you very much-----6
