Join the #1 community for gun owners of the Northwest
We believe the 2nd Amendment is best defended through grass-roots organization, education, and advocacy centered around individual gun owners. It is our mission to encourage, organize, and support these efforts throughout Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming.
At the risk of being presumptuous...
IMHO the below video interview articulates the approach and vision @Joe Link has for NWFA and how we, as a pro-2A community can better serve the cause (and vision) of expanding our fellow citizens' awareness of the awesome liberties (and responsibilities) we...

I haven't bothered trying to debug it, but one of the modules on the site is doing strange things with SWF Player (ShockWave Flash).
3x in the last two days SWF player has crashed while I'm visiting NWFA.
It also causes my instance of Firefox to start using 16-21% CPU resources, which makes...
In order to improve overall performance of the site and to explore improvements to the chat system, the Northwest Firearms Chat has been moved off of the front page onto a page of it's own, located here. A temporary link to the new location has been added in it's place. The normal link can be...

Those of you who caught a glimpse of our new classified system during our last trial know that we've been developing this system since late last year. The main developer for this system (not someone we hired) has been very flaky, so development has been slow.
On Monday I sent out our a...
Hi to NWFA menbers (Smoking 50 Cal) New to site, like looking at ammo and reloading site. Been reloading over 20 years and shooting for 45 years. I am elk hunting fool on St Helens. And thanks for the site.

I am on my android power POS on either chrome or Mozilla and only having problems with this sight. Takes forever to switch around ,freezes when I try to check notices.
And I am on WiFi 2 feet from the box. It costs too much to not be on WiFi so no,I haven't tried it otherwise.
I don't post as often as I used to, but since going back to working 10 hour days I don't have nearly as much free time. I'd still find value reading posts even if I didn't post at all.
Carry on.
We're excited to announce the NWFA Spring Giveaway 2016, featuring over $1400 in prizes for our Supporting Members!

It's 6pm on Tuesday here in Perth Australia, it's 3am PST and I'm reading the forums looking out at the Indian Ocean...
Here's a panoramic photo of Perth I took today...
Here's some photos of the State of Western Australia's memorial of those fallen in war service... may God keep those...
What would you like to see as our own Code of Ethics for outdoor sport shooting on public land?
I was trying to keep it positive by using the wording 'We' do this and 'We' do that. I'm not so excited about other organizations who print a lot of 'Don't' do this and 'No' to that.
How might you...
Kicking around marketing and merchandising plan for which we need some feedback! Simple public poll to get a feel for what our membership thinks of these.
Any additional information is helpful!
With modern high resolution monitors we have much more 'real estate' on our screens than we once did, and responsive styling allows us to customize the view for various screen resolutions. I'd like to get opinions on the fixed width design (which we currently use) versus the wide format (which...

Most of you have seen and read The Atmosphere of Northwest Firearms. My inbox currently holds 376 conversations pertaining to this; an incredible amount of feedback. I've read all of them, and starting today I'm going to do my best to reply to each of them. I appreciate all of you who took the...
I feel the need to address the community due to what appears to be some misunderstanding about what Northwest Firearms is and is not.
To put it plainly, the current atmosphere in many parts of this site is downright toxic. I've said many times before that this liberal vs conservative...
Just did a Google search for NWFA and got this. Any way to control what pictures come up on the right side of the screen?? It seems a pile of trash, even if it is from one of the cleanups, isn't really the best photo to have there.
Why does the NWFA Community Forum not show up in the list when I hover over the word Forum at the top of the page?? See screen shot. It took a while to find the P,S and Q section so I could ask these questions!!
Thanks!!
