Are you active on youtube still ?
To buy a rifle rest bag from a store is the biggest scam 😂
any news if you will make the rest of the parts.
Will this work on the remington 783 too?
Thank you for producing this very through presentation. One point I want to note: at 47:08 you refer to the edge of the map as grid north, but in fact the left and right map borders are aligned to true north. Grid north is the adjusted UTM grid for that quad and deviates from the map edges by (grid north declination) degrees.
You do correct yourself when you reiterate the technique a few seconds later.
Hi Rick. My name is Lambert and I’m in South Africa. I have done my military service for the SADF but that was over 30 years ago. Currently I’m studying your Land Navigation and found it to be very comprehensive and accurate. Thank you. If you don’t know much about the South African political situation… We are days away from a election and those who have the knowledge ( formal high ranking SADF personnel) warns of a serious threat to safety. We ( family) are retreating to one of the last natural reserve in my country. Away from big cities and the anarchy, riots and violence. My question to you please??? As How do I find part 2 to 4 of your videos
Which country's military has the better lensatic compass? UK? Russia? China? Germany? France? USA?
Thank you for the video! I have this exact rifle. Your instructions were perfect! Thanks again!
As someone who was military, had made these before, no idea why I watched this. Just seemed good, but if you’re military. You laughed watching this 😏 Don’t lie.
That's a great idea. It will be helpful
Your a sock milker
My. Hogue Overmold Ghillie green stock has aluminum bed pads in it. Perhaps that changed it over time ?
Definitely helpful. Appreciate it. Thank you.

Ha, Ha I got lost with a military compass and three other artillery cadets!
is it okay to have your scope still mounted for installation?
Hope this works with the bdl. Already ordered all the parts and torque wrench.
Not sure about quality, for example accuracy, we use degrees and on the Cammenga degrees is a secondary low precision scale, the precision scale being mills. The luminous bezel line can only be set by ear with 3° clicks, counting 120 clicks to the circle. ...
Great vid , thanks . Big fun in the deep swamps of the south with no landmarks and map resolutions are realistically useless .
I guess I made the right decision installing my Rem 700 tactical in a Magpul Hunter 700!
Is it mainly used for back or could you use up front
AWESOME JUST AWESOME
Very helpful. Thanks. My wife just sacrificed a knee high stocking. 🙂
Awesome video will make use of it during school
I take it it's in inch pounds? You did not say
He told you the tool he uses. Look it up.
Did you have to purchase longer screws to make the detachable magazine well fit?
Get longer 1/4 x28 bolts. You literally only have 2 threads engaging now.
Thank you it’s been so long since I’ve look at or even nav on a compass. I’m 57 and was a young cadet/reserves til 23.Just watching part1 brings back memories.

Excellent video. Just a minor thing, at 14:46 that would be wrong. The sighting wire should be at 90 degrees, not folded down. Like you said, even small errors will become magnified with every step. With it folded down, the sight radius is shortened. His sight radius is only a fraction of what it would be with it at 90 degrees. Personally, I find it best to have the lens bracket all the way back as well. I do wear glasses tho so that may be different for each person. Excellent job tho!
Excelente
Hmm pantyhose, feet, milking, big and fat, long and skinny all kinds of words. Hahaha. Good cheap tool! 😂
I noticed that under the declination it had a 1993 date and I know that the declination changes over time so I tried to look up the current decl. for that map and I could not get very exact. I had to sort of guess where to put a flag on the map on a website. It said currently it is 9º 4’. Now I have to find out what 9º 4’ minutes means.
Excellent video.
Great training - Mil Spec is always best.
Excellent how to video, thank you!
I have always wondered if you can use Orange Lock-tite? What say ye?
I appreciated the very through description of all of the parts of the Commenga compass. I have watched several of theses videos and you covered this really well. Something else , everybody says is how metal object affect the needle. This is not a criticism but I feel like it is important to say that only metal that contains iron will affect a compass needle. You will notice that the case is made of aluminum, which is a metal. Brass, aluminum, copper, lead, any non ferrous metals have no effect.
Your talk about cheap compasses at 3:50 reminded me of an old saying, "There are two ways to pay for something. One is with money, and the other is with quality; and I certainly prefer paying with the former than the latter." -attributed to Benjamin Franklin
My nephew asked me to “train” him and his buddy like the Army would. I wrote up a whole outline of all sorts of field craft, heavily laden with land navigation. Naturally, he didn’t want to be bothered! When I was in the Army in the 80s, we didn’t have GPS. We had this stuff. I perfected my skills throughout my time, doing more advanced land nav in PLDC, and getting more into nighttime ops (I never got to Jungle Warfare School, but I hear that’s the apex of land nav skills). By the time I got out, I could shoot an azimuth off of a leaf or a rock, had a perfect pace count down, and with a compass could call for fire on a manhole from a mile away! It was, in my opinion, the most important skill for a soldier to master. I wonder if the Army still places such high priority on these skills?
They don't. Land Nav was removed from PLDC/WLC/BLC as they call it now because the POGs were failing land nav so badly and now they have more writing and presentations instead.
@@chaddawg1084 Sad...I was in the Army in the 80's, in PLDC we would screw with the admin type people and ask them if they knew how to compensate for the wind when shooting an azimuth. LOL
We were taught for land terrain, Hidden valley ranch salad dressing, Hidden=Hill Valley=Valley Ranch=Ridge Salad=Saddle Dressing=Depression
Great content! Would love to see the curriculum continued. Thanks
Fantastic I like this video greetings from belize
Would you consider shortening your intro?
I got confused, bc another video I watched, said to remember “rank promotions/demotions”, when figuring out the formula. G to M (General to Major) is a demotion. M to G (Major to General) is a promotion. That has me all discombobulated.
Are poly pellets made of plastic? Because i only can find plastic pellets
Same thing. Usually they're made of polypropylene , a type of plastic.
Good tip about the Fat Wrench, thanks.
12 years in the Army and this is the first time I fully understand all the concepts! Keep it going!
I bought one of these when I was a cadet in 1983. I got out in 1986 and stowed the compass, LBE, everything for 37 years. I retired from one agency 7 years ago and started with another in a semi-rural beach community. God love'em, but we can't rely on the fire volunteers for water rescues or SAR. We've taken on those missions in addition to EMS. We've got someone coming to teach SAR, and it includes lensatic compasses and maps. I can't find my Ranger beads so I'm going to build another set. I bought new canteens to go in my LBE. Gonna buy a new angle flashlight, and a protractor.
Nice, sounds like fun. I’d love to do something like that. I’m going to pick up some various beads and put them on the compass lanyard itself. With both sides of the lanyard going through each bead. I usually just attach the lanyard to belt and put the compass in a pocket. With the lanyard just hanging out there I thought, just combine the beads and compass. We’ll see
