The points of the compass are an evenly spaced set of horizontal directions (or azimuths) used in navigation and geography. A compass rose is primarily composed of four cardinal directions—north, east, south, and west—each separated by 90 degrees, and secondarily divided by four ordinal (intercardinal) directions—northeast, southeast, southwest, and northwest—each located halfway between two cardinal directions. Some disciplines such as meteorology and navigation further divide the compass with additional azimuths. Within European tradition, a fully defined compass has 32 'points' (and any finer subdivisions are described in fractions of points).Compass points are valuable in that they allow a user to refer to a specific azimuth in a colloquial fashion, without having to compute or remember degrees.

Hi folks,
I'm new on the site, thanx to Tim @ TigardPawn! Currently live in Portland, love my Sig P226, kinda like my S&W M&P 9mm. I'm looking to find any indoor shooting ranges as my wife wants to learn how to shoot. I know of one in Hillsboro off of Brookwood. Are there any in Portland? Thanx...
Hello everyone my name is Izzy. Thanks for allowing me to join. I have a rifle and a shotgun. I am looking for a Springfield .45 with a 4 inch barrel (made before 2000). I am also looking for a Ruger 10/22. Looking forward to enjoying another outdoor activity and meeting new people. I also like...

I'm happy to announce the tentative date and time of the Northwest Firearms V4 Upgrade is Monday, July 15th, beginning at 3AM PST. While we hope get the site back up and running as soon as possible, it's hard to predict exactly how long the site will be down. If everything goes as planned it...

I know there have been a bunch of films made in our region over the years, but I stumbled across one last night that I hadn't watched before.
It was "Thunderbolt and Lightfoot" starring Clint Eastwood and Jeff Bridges and made in 1974.
Can't believe I'd never seen it before as it featured some...

Number of confirmed measles cases in Clark County grows to 51
Data point. My Mother-in-law had Measles as a child (before there was a vaccine). She started to go cross-eyed and had to wear an eye patch for a year.
I am considering stippling my carry gun (Glock 19 gen 3).
Any recommendations of someone locally who can do this for a fair price?
I could do it myself but would rather pay a pro. I'd also prefer not to spend like $300 on it which is the pricing I seem to be finding...

Eventually. Where will the weakening hurricane track in the next couple of weeks? Our way? Dunno. It could make a tremendous difference in our immediate future. They usually track South and East.. But this one is very far North. That is all.

Though our community now has over 42,000 members, there are still thousands of Northwest gun owners who've never heard of us. Many of you have been asking if we have something like this available, now we do! We've designed this simple flyer for our members to print at home and post (with...
I was motivated to advertise on here again after seeing Joe's PM for donations. But this time I thought I'd step it up and donate 10% of the proceeds from every sale to the forum. This forum is how I got introduced to firearms. My first gun was bought from here, and the guy I bought it from...

Now that things have died down a bit, and I've had a chance to catch my breath and gather my emotions, I want to give you guys the most sincere thank you I possibly can. There really isn't any way to put into words how appreciative I am that all of you came together and made this happen when we...

I know the question: We've just gotten used to NWFA Version 3.1 and we're talking about the next version already??
I'm positive the most popular question I'm going to get everyone is "Why fix it if it ain't...
