Review: There are Good Compasses, and there are Cheap Compasses; but there are no good cheap Compasses.. . If You haven't used a military grade compass, you simply cannot understand the Survival Value of such equipment. It performs it's prime function without fail, even in the dark. There is Much more to using a Compass Accurately than turning on UR simple Phone and Pressing the Compass App - You would NOT believe how much more accurate and useful this does it's job, - than an app. ## Features - This item is restricted for export and cannot be sold for use in some countries outside the U.S. Please contact Rothco for details. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0006YXWN2 | | Additional Features | Portable | | Best Sellers Rank | #136,254 in Sporting Goods ( See Top 100 in Sporting Goods ) #295 in Compasses | | Brand Name | ROTHCO | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 4.7 out of 5 stars (288) | | Manufacturer | Rothco | | Manufacturer Part Number | FBA_417 | | Map Scale | 1:50,000 and 1:63,360 | | Material Type | Aluminum | | Model Number | 417 | | Mounting Type | None" or "Handheld | | UPC | 613902417106 410000232330 718122543250 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** ROTHCO - **Map scale:** 1:50,000 and 1:63,360 - **Material:** Aluminum - **Mounting type:** None" or "Handheld - **Special features:** Portable ## Images ![ROTHCO Cammenga 3H Cammenga G.I.

Mine is not pointing north and doesn't move. It appears 2 not have liquid** A: There is not supposed to be any liquid. If the compass is not moving gently tap it on the palm of your hand. If that doesn't free the needle then call the customer care and let them know it is defective. **Q: there are 6 ratings that say this compass is from china. 35 says its great. where is this compass mae the radioactive warning sticke** A: I just gave my standard issue unit to my son because he's been eyeballing it for years. I was issued it in 1997. I used it till my discharge in 2009. And I have used it on our outdoor expeditions all over New England ever since. Hasn't failed me yet. I searched the NSN #, found this Rothco model, and I'm purchasing now. Can't go wrong and can't be beat. Do some research on the NSN and what it takes to acquire one and you will have no worries! Also, for those asking about liquid...do your research before trekking out into the wild with a compass. **Q: pls tell us where this is made** A: I don't have a definite answer for you, since nowhere on the compass itself, or the pouch, does it say "Made in USA". What I can say is the item I received does have the tritium source, has the drab green painted aluminum body, and in all respects appears to be well made. On the top cover is cast into the case: "Model 3H Cammenga NSN 6605-01-196-6971 U.S." Inside there is printed date of 10 03 77, and on the underside, again cast into the compass body, is "21-26460-02E 120mCi 3H". Per cammenga.com/product-p/3h.htm , it says the date code I gave above is actually "The manufactured date can be found on the inside of the compass cover next to the sight wire. In most cases it will be displayed as a series of 3 pairs of numbers: ## ## ## This format stands for the year, month, and lot number. For example: If the compass was made in January of 2004 the date would be displayed 04 01 77. The lot number 77 is a generic number for compasses made outside of a government contract" So mine was made in March 2010.From my use of this compass, it feels and acts like "the real thing". I've been pleased with my purchase. **Q: is this compass waterproof** A: It has a sealed element so I think it is waterproof. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review *by R***Y on 26 April 2025* The Cammenga is the finest compass in its class - either for use with a map or without.
