UK here. Quite a rural area in the mid-90s, and worlds away from US gun culture, but one time our school was playing rugby against another rival school and a lad brought in a .22 air rifle and shot one of their players in the ass from the edge of the pitch. It was hilarious for those not involved, kid got a telling off and may have been briefly suspended, but thinking about how that would have been reported these days it would probably have caused national outrage.
