His really stupid and fundamentally mechanically wrong defense is somehow better than defending this as an AD*. It is, technically, possible to fire an old west single action army revolver if you hit the muzzle or the hammer really, really hard and it is a model built to the original spec instead of the updated spec that has a bar that stops the hammer without a trigger press. It's pretty much impossible for any handgun in any kind of common use today to discharge without a trigger pull, even if one of the parts breaks.
That the shooter was so stupid that they were using their fat as a holster should be enough to tell us a negligent discharge is much more likely even if this was a mechanical danger
