Abstract
A recreational or sportman's compass is comprised of an inner vial including a compass needle which together with an azimuth ring is resiliently mounted within a housing so as to be rotatable together or independently of one another. The vial is assembled together with the outer azimuth ring and retainer in such a way as to permit assembly of the parts into snug-fitting concentric relation to the housing without the necessity of positively fastening or affixing the vial to the housing.
