Is it okay to use my Mini in the winter?

So this weekend there is a big scenario event and I am letting my friend use my BT and my brother use my A5, so I'm left with my Mini. It's calling for snow this Saturday so I'm kinda nervous. Do you guys think it'll be alright to use my precious Mini in the snow? I'm scared the board will fry

If you're that worried about it, seal the joints with electrical tape. But I wouldn't worry about it.

As long as you don't bury your gun in the snow you should be fine. If it's extremely cold though, your gun may not even work. I have an axe, and I went to play one day and it was around 15 degrees outside. My axe would not work. Balls would go literally 2 feet out the barrel on each shot. However, let it sit in the car with the heat on for a few minutes, and then it cycles just fine. I think it causes the solenoid to stick, or the noid gets starved of voltage or something when its really cold out. Same problem happens with my impulse. Best thing would be to keep your gun as warm as possible, and leave it in the car until right before the game starts.

For the cold, you can get heat packs and tape it to the side. Helps keep the noid warm.
