But what time current? 1930s?

Modern/near future.

Then my numbers apply...12-15 years of service the norm...but if you get into SOF community or technical fields it could be 8 - 10. That's about true across all services.

Hi guys. I'm trying to disassemble old military coincidence rangefinder. Link: https://imgur.com/a/FMMXjgv If anyone happens to have a somekind of manual on these things it'd be much appreciated. If not I'm open to ideas how to continue on taking this thing apart. You see its a bit broken, and I'm trying to get inside. I've provided an album with detailed pictures and comments of my findings. Thanks.

Enjoy!
And if I might ask what are planning on doing with the range finder once its serviceable?

I had a rangefinding training in the military so I'm planning to take this bad boy out in the fields and check some birds maybe. The view is absolutely stunning through that device. Everything is so much deeper because the stereo vision is multiplied by many factors compared to our eyes' distance.

And I thought you might be using it to measure the distance from the tee to the hole....
