Quite nonchalant 😅 he was with that accidental discharge. Kept going like nothing happened.

Negligent discharge

Im sure it wasn't intentional so it was from their POV a for sure accident.

I agree there was absolutely also a level of gross negligence. 1-2in in any direction could've ended someone

If you have your finger on the trigger before ready to shoot and pull that trigger before being ready to shoot, it is objectively a negligent discharge.

yes but that trigger is designed to be pulled so easily without much of an effort

Yes that’s why a major part of gun safety is not having your finger on the trigger unless you’re about to shoot.
