when we wuz kids...
....back before seatbelts (remember mom throwing her arm across your chest in panic stops while driving?) we used to engage in BB gun fights.
Dumb as we were back then, the thought of wearing eye protection never really occurred to us. We simply agreed to not shoot above the chest. Luckily for us, we never had any unfortunate accidents in the "heat of battle".
However, to add to what Byron mentioned above, I was always a bit surprised by how many times I shot my friend's guns, either by deliberate aim or when snap shooting. Since some of those guns had plastic stocks it used to produce a most satisfying "whack"!
