We were also kicked out when somebody got drunk and decided to shoot beer bottles out of the hands of people at the house next door. I think it was only for five years, but I was gone before reinstatement.
I hope you lads were using a pellet gun and not a serious firearm. The former sounds like kind of a fun prank, the latter would be dangerous and crazy!
I was shot a couple of times with powerful pellet guns: My uncle's stepson shot me in the leg with a pellet gun. I can still see the scar by looking closely, 54 1/2 years later. My response was to wrest the gun away from him (although he was several years older and larger than I) and shoot him in the leg as he begged and screamed for mercy. He later became a mercenary in the Congo, which I thought was way cool. Lost touch with him eventually.
Another time I was shot from ambush with a pellet gun at prep school. Never found out who did it, but I have some strong suspicions. My prime suspect later was a jet jock in Nam, which redeemed him, I suppose.
