M-73 Leader's Compass





The Francis Barker traditional military liquid prismatic compass is currently in service with many defense forces around the world, and has been for many years. It is the compass that officers of the British Army have used for many generations. New lands and territories were surveyed, Empires were built, and military victories won as a result of the ability to accurately determine position and direction. Francis Barker also made the compass and sundial that Dr. Livingstone used on his Africa expeditions. His company also made a garden sundial for Charles Dickens, and precision instruments for many other illustrious citizens and noblemen since it was founded in 1848.

The M-73 is a robust, highly precise instrument made of aluminum, glass, and (predominantly) brass. Like all Francis Barker compasses, it is designed to withstand even the most extreme climates or conditions. The M-73′s prism sighting system allows the user to shoot extremely accurate azimuths. Quick, precise settlement of the liquid filled dial assembly allows for rapid use of the compass in field conditions. Five self-luminous tritium light sources enable night operation.
