From memory (and this is 30 years ago) it was a prop gun firing blanks. Something was caught in the barrel causing the wadding of the blank to become lethal due to the closeness of the stunt. I’m going from memory here so maybe I am wrong. I just remember the buzz around it being a fluke (and a bit about the Lee curse) Gotta remember this was the Dark Days before internet was widely in use. ;)

It was an actual bullet that had gotten lodged in the barrel while filming another scene.
