: It should be fine. Just try to keep it out of any slush or water. It might get some moisture from melted snow, but not enough to damage it. I wouldn't worry if I were you. When you're done, just come home and make sure everything's dry.

: The thing you might have trouble with, however, is co2. If you use co2 on a Spyder that isn't low pressure, in cold weather, you might have a hard time getting your velocity up to 280. You might even have recocking problems, depending on how cold it is. Good luck.

: P.S. - if you plan to play a lot in very cold weather, I would do one of two things:

: 1. go low-pressure and get an anti-siphon tank

: 2. Get a siphon tank, and make sure you remove any regulators or expansion chambers

: These are two different approaches to overcoming some of the problems associated with CO2 in cold climates.

: Then again, maybe you don't use CO2? You didn't say. If you use HPA, ignore all of this :)


...I use co2 but i am going to upgrade soon, for now my friends say that they wrap a sock around there 20 oz and stuff hand warmers in there.. they say it works.. but i havent tried it yet..
oh yea what about my friends E99 isthere any way to protect the electronics from the snow?
