Except when one went off and through a bulkhead. Then the problem might be the plane ripping to pieces in mid air. But hey, I am all for second ammendment rights. Just remember that you are not riding on "public transportation" but a privately owned vehicle. Let's not get carried away with those rights, K?

A hole in a bulkhead made by a handgun round is not going to cause the plane to break up. That is just a myth caused by the anti's.

Which rights do you mean, like maybe your right to state unfounded untruths? Such as a single bullet disintegrating the aircraft? This urban myth has been prover false so many times it is unreal.

Don't get your engineering data from the movies. You could fire off a couple of magazines of 7.62x49 inside an airliner and do no more than poke that many .30 cal holes. Very bad luck could damage some hydraulics.
No one would be sucked out a window nor would the airframe fail.

On the KC-10 (Same as DC-10 and similar to MD-11 airliners) the valve is about the size of a human head, you can watch the ground go by below through the valve, when its open a significant amount. This from a former KC-10 crew chief who had the office next to mine. The valve would just close down a little to compensate for the air loss through the bullet hole or holes.

Get real. A sub-half inch hole isn't going to down an airliner. Remember the Hawaiian airliner that lost half the freaking roof and landed safely???
