I'm guessing he was being very careless and remarkably stupid.

He was given, what he was told was a cold gun. The fault is with the prop person in charge of the gun. She was inexperienced, the movie was a poorly run production and the union crew walked out due to unsafe working conditions. A crew member that should never have touched the gun, much less handed it to and actor did told him it was cold. They were rehearsing and in all rehearsals you use a rubber gun. Never a real gun, loaded or not. He was shooting at the camera and the girl killed was the operator. He was shooting was he thought and was told was an empty gun.
