Is there any way a pump action shotgun can discharge with the chamber open?

When the action is open, nothing is holding a shell in the chamber, and the firing pin is several inches away from the shotshell primer. The hammer is also held down by the bolt when in the rearward position. Action open, safety on is the standard "weapon clear" drill. No, no way.

What is break in shotgun?
There is no "break in" shotgun. A "break open" shotgun is a single barrel, double barrel, or combination rifle/shotgun which breaks open in the sense that a lever will unlock the action, allowing the barrel to pivot at a hinge at the front of the receiver, pivoting the rear of the barrel up to expose the chamber. A shells may be loaded into the chamber and the barrel pivoted back to close the action. The act to "break in" a shotgun means to fire it a few times to loosen it up.

Loading a pump-action shotgun is fairly simple. Open the action and hold the stock underneath your arm. Pop a shell into the action, then close the action to load your chamber. To load the magazine tube, take the next shell and push it into the action, then pin it in place using your index finger.
