My FIL loves his guns and is usually safe, but at 77 years old, his attention span and judgement are now in question. On the 4th of July we all had a good time shooting at my target out in the back field which all went off without a hitch. Driving back up to the house after we were done he came within inches of clipping off his drivers mirror on my horse fence (stationary post) while talking to someone in the back seat. (this is the same van that he blew out the rear window and severly crumpled the lift gate when he hit the front of my truck after pulling him out of a snowy ditch with my 25' long tow strap). Later though, he was rummaging through the big bag of fireworks he had brought with a flashlight in one hand and a lit sparkler in the other, nothing was said but we all kinda backed away.
