3. He's in the county so it isn't illegal to fire a gun there

But it's only a half acre lot so he has to be very careful if he does.

I think he really just wants an excuse to try out this stuff. I have to admit that I'm intrigued by the idea of primers powerful enough to propel a 20g projectile at 500 fps. Maybe I'll buy a box and he can come out here and shoot at drink cans or gophers.
