John McCann and Anton Brannigan struck Robert 'Boab' Spence on the head as he sat in a van outside a shop in Glasgow's Tollcross in January 2021
The pellets from the one shot that was fired also hit Gary Milne who was sat beside Mr Spence.
However, the pair were convicted at the High Court in Glasgow of the attempted murder of Mr Spence and Mr Milne. Judge Michael O'Grady told them: "Over the last eight days, this court has had a glimpse into your lives. The court heard that the attackers arrived at the scene in a white Seat Ibiza car minutes before the shooting. They waited until the van containing the victims pulled up outside the One Stop Shop around 7.34am.
Jurors were earlier taken to a text message sent by McCann to Brannigan from two weeks before the shooting. In it, McCann asked Brannigan for a knife to take to a funeral. McCann - who was on a tag and lived five minutes from the scene - was shown to have returned home at 7.39am. He stated that he was out at the time to get money and beers from his stepdad.
Text messages were also recovered from the day of the shooting in which McCann stated to a friend that he and Brannigan needed a place to "lay low for a while." He also asked for the car to be "burned" out. The same vehicle was later found with different number plates at a property in Yorkshire three days after the shooting.
