So, I'm going to visit family for Thanksgiving, but there have been numerous robberies in my neighborhood, so I'm not leaving the guns behind to be stolen. The weapons are coming with me, but I need to leave the shogtun and the AK in the trunk of the car for the whole 4 day visit. The temperatures are going to hover around 20-30 degrees during the day, with nighttime temperatures in the teens and single digits.
The shotgun is a remington 870 that is well oiled, greased, etc... I was kinda kidding about the AK - anything conceived/tested/built in Siberia can handle a Virginia winter.
Should I avoid leaving the shotgun in freezing temperatures for 4 days straight? Also, how hard is the cold weather on ammo?
