Looking for a military compass

I was wondering if anyone knows where I can get a compass with bearing units in mils instead of degrees.  I'm looking for one like the Suunto or Silva compasses with a baseplate and housing cover. 
 
I got a Suunto compass at a place called Travel Europe, which is across the street from the Mountain Equipment Co-Op in downtown Toronto. And yes, it uses mils, not degrees.
 
I did a quick search on ebay and found 56 compasses under "silva Compass." Prices range from $5 to $50.

I hope this helps. I prefer the silva myself.  :salute:
 
Silva Ranger, $60. The one I bought is in mils and degrees.

Is that on King Street?

Years ago I prefabed those 10 foot 16" square posts for Europe Bound Store front, never got to see the finished product.
Just curious.
