Forgot to add, shrapnel from the brass when this happens is JUST as likely

Actually, if the bullets were NOT in the gun, they don't come out with much
force because the explosion of the powder isn't focused in one direction by
the barrel of the gun. Yeah, they'll put an eye out, might even bring the
blood, but, they're not traveling straight, fast, or far.
My step-brother was a gunsmith.

So the owners hid behind the fridge?
When was the last time a 1/32 inch thick piece of sheet metal and some
Styrofoam stopped a bullet?
Sorry but all those involved in this story have been had.
