Perhaps peoples first reaction is that a military receiver is probably

Have you seen the size of those suckers?  civilian recievers are much
smaller and lighter.


Thats why the GeoCE is avalible in Nato Grey as well as yellow. Even if it's not intended for front line use millitary people just don't seem to like bright yellow devices for some reason :)

As others have said, it depends on exactly what you want to use it for but if all you want is roung location to within 5 meters or so then any consumer unit will do, most of them are reasonably rugged these days.
