By removing the magazine from the gun and two pulling back the slide, the bullet in the chamber should have ejected. Further when the slide returned to the firing position the gun should not have discharged unless the trigger was pulled and/or the safety was disengaged (safetys vary from gun to gun). It could well have been a mechanical failure in the gun? One the bullet stuck in the chamber and two the firing pin was released as the slide went forward...two things that should not have happened?
