Legally I can't have a gun outside my house, anywhere on my property unless it's in a locked box.
I can't open carry even on my property.
My neighbor's are not THAT far away and I imagine if I called them and told/ invited them over I could get away with plinking. As I said I allegedly may have a shooting gallery on my property.
Winter can get into the 20's(F). Pretty uncommon to get any colder than that. About 20 years ago it got down to 6F and we had several pipes break from that.
Once the sun comes out the days will warm up to 45-50F
