The facts are changing in the story.... now that its not a jammed casing but an actual 7.62 chambered barrel I'm wondering if the idiot instructor even know what weapon he's actually got a hold of......MG3 maybe?

I stand by the possibility this was caused by what I wrote above, a jammed weapon that fired upon opening the feed tray cover, the chamber may have been empty and the casing may have been on the face of the bolt, who knows.

That said, if you cannot place a machinegun on safe than you'd better grab the charging handle before you open the feed tray.

This sounds more and more like 99% fault of the firearms "instructor".
