I rather doubt this, but you're more than welcome to cite a source. I
doubt it because in general, the "bullets" (I have to assume you mean
cartridges) don't fit in the guns backwards. And, if, by some miracle,
you manage to drop the hammer on a cartridge loaded into the gun
backwards, you'll dent the bullet, maybe ruin the striker, but not much
else will happen.
If, otoh, you really do mean "bullet" then why would the bullet being put
into the casing backwards (and that doesn't seem all that easy, either)
lead to death?
