Jail would not be too much. Basic safety rules were ignored - obviously.

No, jail would not be harsh in this case. I'm in a local shop often, but I've never seen anyone put a live round in any firearm outside the ranges. There is just no need. If you must have something in for testing use a snap cap!!

My most favvorite and least favorite place to be is the local gun shop. Lots of nice hardware but the usual arrogance (and in this case head-in-ass syndrome) that accompanies the stereotypical staff is cause to stay away.

Maybe "reckless display of a firearm" or "Reckless endangerment w/ firearm" Maximum sentence for RD is about 90 days in jail or a five thousand dollar fine. Reckless endangerment comes with a steeper price..about 18 months to 3 three years.
The store is in deep doo-doo though. Clearly this employee wasn't being supervised properly and they can expect a civil suit. Can't say as I blame the parents.
