This is a unique and extraordinary situation that may have never happened before, and certainly not actually shooting someone.
Ethical behavior is checking to make sure your firearm is SAFE before pointing it at someone and pulling the trigger...

As I said before, if the scene required him to play "Russian Roulette", do you think he would "just take someone's word" that the gun was safe, or would he check for himself?
