The thing is, I don't want to purposefully piss off my neighbors. If I do piss them off however, I want to make sure I'm legal if the cops show up. That way I can tell the neighbors to kiss my azz if I need to. So it's kind of a catch 22. All the lots in the development around my house are 5-10 acres, but we only have scrub oak for cover. If we had trees where they couldn't see me, I'd be popping off my 22 all day, unfortunately, I won't have trees for concealment. Since an air rifle is perfectly legall, that's my best option. Plus, when I go home to the PNW, I can truely be an outlaw with it shooting sealions that try and steal our salmon.
