WWII-era British military commando Wrist Compass
This is a WWII-era British military wrist compass (officially designated “Compass, Survival, Wrist Type,” Air Ministry Ref. No. 6B/2593), issued primarily to RAF aircrew (pilots and navigators) as part of escape and evasion/survival kits, but also widely used by British airborne forces, paratroopers, SAS, SOE, and commandos. Key Features •  Blackened metal case (brass or steel) with a hinged hunter-style lid containing a mirror (for signaling). •  Dry-card design (non-liquid/air-damped compass card – no fluid visible, with a floating card that settles more slowly than liquid-filled types). The central thumb screw rotates the bezel for sighting/bearings. •  Luminous markings (originally radium paint for night visibility). •  Long khaki herringbone twill webbing strap (designed to wear over flying suits, sleeves, thigh, or ankle). •  Back markings: REF No. 6B/2593 (or similar worn variant like N968/2593), SER No. in “B/” format (B often denoting manufacturer Francis Barker & Son). Close-up photo clearly shows the dry floating card (white/silver with black markings, no damping fluid or bubbles), distinguishing it from the more common liquid-filled variants of the same model. These were produced from the early 1940s through the post-war period (your serial/year code suggests 1950s–1960s production). Dry versions are authentic but less frequently encountered intact, as many liquid ones leaked over time. Can can ship anywhere, Please see my other ads for rare and collectable military items

Chevy 2500HD 6.0L with VMAC
2015 Silverado 2500HD LT 4x4 Crew Cab regular box Very well maintained truck with vast majority of use on highway. Clean car fax with no collision or theft history. Regular synthetic oil changes, 80-95% remaining on brake pads, new Nokian Outpost tires in Nov, excellent paint condition, transmission / diff oils changed by Transmission shop (not a quick-lube type place that does damage with a flush) at 90,000 and 180,000 km and not a spec of metal on the magnet when the pan was dropped. All new spark plugs at 190,000 km. Needs nothing. Will buy new windshield and oil change for new owner. This shows like a much newer truck and you will see the difference in person. Don’t want to put a crack in a new windshield before you get possession so we can discuss when to put that in for you. A new owner can put it to better commercial use as it is just my daily driver and I’m not using the VMAC air compressor unit as I intended. $19,000 unit installed in 2019 and less than 25hr of use. Canopy locks with ignition key, 50 foot retractable reel with holding tank inside the canopy. Iconic workhorse 6.0L L96 engine with a 4.10 gear ratio made to tow. Only thing it has towed is a small snowmobile trailer (single axle, barely fits a single machine) and a couple small boats - less than 30 tows in total. This unit is turnkey ready to go to work for your business. You are welcome to get it to a mechanic shop you trust if you want to pay for your own inspection for peace of mind. Once you see this you will see why it’s in better condition than the rest. Not looking for anyone to sell this on my behalf and unsolicited requests as such will be reported according to CASL. Private sale, no gst.
