Re: Shooting a BB gun in back yard

I just reread that and I am a bit long-winded.

(On a long-winded note, this post puts me at enough to post classifieds on the forum. Now to look for a Commander-Sized 1911...)

Re: Shooting a BB gun in back yard

Thank you very much for the replies. I am not worried about the neighbors complaining. The lady that lives on one side is never home and the neighbors on the other side have three boys that would probably want to shoot with us and the dad has a Utah CCL(he's actually from Utah. He doesn't have a gun though but he wants an LCP).

I have a very small back yard though, so I can't get straw or hay back there. I was thinking of just using a sheet of plywood propped up on the back fence as a backstop but we would be shooting at a box with paper targets on it so it will trap most of the BBs.
I am mostly worried about hitting the fence. We have those PVC fences(not a fan) that might break if we hit it.

Shooting a BB gun in back yard

Who, specifically do I call to see if it is legal to shoot a BB gun in my back yard?

We called the police on new years eve because there was a group of people shooting off fire works on our street (we don't mind that they were shooting the fireworks but they do this every 4th of July and new years eve and they NEVER clean up the mess they make). When we called they said that it was legal for them to shoot off the fire works.

That makes me think that it shouldn't be a problem for BB guns.

I want to be able to teach my 8 year old daughter how to shoot.

Thank you in advance for your help.
