Clearly the gun is unsafe. We need a new federal program.
It isn't clear what caused the gun to go off. It wasn't moving. his hands were no where near the mechanism. There was a distinct audible click when he attempted to fire it.
Best guess: Old ammo that is either corroded or contaminated with moisture causing delayed primer ignition.
More likely: Amature film editing class. It is an old established format to do something twice to establish the correct pattern and then do something that breaks the pattern. This was his second misfire, he cleared the first by recocking, showing he knew how. it would have been easy to just do it again.
I've never understood the temptation to look down the barrel of a gun for the problem. It's freaking dark in there. What do you expect to see?
He missed!
It is fun to look down a gun barrel. I recommend opening the action first, so that light comes through from the other side. You also tend not to have live ammunition in the chamber pointed at your eyeball.
Went to the range for the very first time a few weeks ago. I shot a Glock 22 and HK P2000, both 40 S&W. I never once looked down the barrel, despite wondering what the hell was wrong with the HK's interminable trigger reset.
