Lets break it down… (mostly for the non-americans who aren’t used to guns)
Gun was loaded. You shouldn’t be storing a loaded weapon. So he either loaded it there or is an irresponsible gun owner.
Gun was pointed at a person. Never point a gun (loaded or not) at anything you don’t intend to shoot.
His finger was on the trigger. No trigger discipline at all. Index finger should be planted on the frame while doing literally ANYTHING other than meaning to pull the trigger.
This is the basics… Anyone who’s taken any gun safety course would know, any responsible gun owner would know and religiously follow…
You forgot keep your weapon on safe until you intend to fire, but yeah the thing about weapons safety rules is you have to fail all of them in order to shoot someone. He had intent in my mind.
I don’t see where it says what kind of gun. It could have been a revolver. But at that point does it really matter anymore? So many “mistakes” were already made.

“Never let the muzzle point at anything that you are not willing to destroy.”
