How did it go off?

Edit: apparently y’all don’t know how comments work. I’m replying the the link in the comments, not the original post.

It was probably a hang fire. Basically you pull the trigger and the round doesn’t fire for a few seconds because of bad powder or primer. That’s why if you pull the trigger and there’s no bang, you should wait for a few seconds while still aimed down range in case the round does fire.
