The sound of a cartridge exploding from a fire is different than the sound of a bullet fired from a handgun. Throw some cartridges into a bonfire; no sonic crack, just a “poof”. Fire a handgun and there is a sonic crack, unless it is at true point blank range so the bullet does not travel through much space. Three of the four shots on this youtube have a sonic crack so they had to be from bullets exiting a barrel at a speed greater than the speed of sound. The forth shot, IMO, was fired at very close range, probably downward, as there is no sonic crack. Just my two cents.

Definitely not the sound a gun makes if it is touched off inside a holster or under any type of debris or in a closed space.

If that is ammo cooking off, you would also hear the rounds cooking off in the mags first, not the round in the chamber which is what it sounds like.

I was thinking the same thing. They sound like warning shots to clear the scene.
