The tactical transit when precision matters! The Brunton Tactical Transit offers the same functionality, quality, and durability that the U.S. Military has depended on since WWI. Built with a green composite body and the same internal components as other Brunton transits, this lightweight tool enables accurate navigation and readings of bearing & angle. Weather-resistant plastic case included.
Needle Balancing: If your main region of transit use will not be in the United States, your needle will need a special balance.
Features:
- Traditional transit measurement method.
- The composite body is ultralight and tough.
- The mirror enables sighting and measurement of bearings and vertical angles.
- Short and long sights give the user additional functionality and accuracy when shooting bearings.
- The precision NdFeB disc magnet provides very accurate readings and resists demagnetization.
- Our magnetic needle can be balanced for use almost anywhere in the world.
- Induction dampening makes for a quick-settling needle.

- The needle lock button can lock or free the needle, depending on the model.

WHAT MATTERED THEN, MATTERS NOW.
In 1894, D.W. Brunton created the Pocket Transit: a compact, precision compass that freed outdoorsmen from the bulky equipment of the time, and set the course we still follow: never accept, never settle. Our home and headquarters in Riverton, Wyoming, at the foot of the Wind River range, is both inspiration and proving ground for products created to that creed, made for those who overcome and achieve. The drive to excel changed everything back in 1894; it matters more today.
