Um, guns don’t typically “accidentally” discharge.

NO they don’t. And sitting behind a locked, reinforced door, means he should not have it in Condition One. No reason for a round to be chambered.

what did it impact? No damage anywhere? Was it a magic bullet?

Guns don’t go BANG unless you hit the “go” button.

explovely is a word in search of a definition.

Speaking of that, what’s the protocol if a pilot suddenly decides to shoot dead his copilot, for whatever reason, then hides behind those reinforced cockpit doors?

Oh man I gotta fly tomorrow and now I gotta worry about rogue handguns going off by themselves endangering planes full of innocent people.

Pressurized cabins are no place to play with guns.

Think about all the thousands of things that could go wrong on that plane and you’ll sleep a lot better.

I'll bet the clean up crew had a big job cleaning all those seats.
AD in the cockpit?...hmmm.

Dollars to donuts the pilot was playing with it. Weapons don’t “accidently” discharge without someone pulling a trigger. In all my years of being around weapons I have never had one discharge without some input from me.
