[Tex/LaTex] “Broken” arrow symbol

arrowssymbols

In his pretty awesome book “Undergraduate Algebraic Geometry” M. Reid uses (e.g. see page 4) symbol of “broken” arrow (which looks quite a like dash+space+short arrow : “- →”) for partially defined maps. What is the most suitable way to produce it in LaTeX? I looked through “The Comprehensive LaTeX Symbol List” but didn't find something similar.

\usepackage{MnSymbol}
\begin{document}
So a rational map f: $V_1 \dashedrightarrow V_2$ is not a map at all;
