Hello-
This info has likely been posted before but I've had a heck of a time finding a solid answer.
I called the Washington county Sheriffs office today to ask on the legalities of discharging an air rifle on private property. The officer looked up my address and said that it is legal but I need to have a good back stop (I'm in the urban development zone, very suburban). In addition, since the air rifles look very much like real guns, they put notes in the system letting any responding officers know that I have airguns and shoot them on the property in case a neighbor calls to report. Obviously I'll be talking to the neighbors as well.
