"Bullets" do not "go off". A bullet is the metal projectile that comes out of the barrel of a firearm. The term you are looking for is cartridge. Since there is no safe way to fire a cartridge without it being in the correct firearm, I am not going to answer your question- in THAT direction lies pain and injury. I would appreciate it if other contributors would NOT explain how to hurt yourself badly.

How is a bullet fired from a gun?

A cartridge is that cylindrical container that has an explosive inside, a projectile (bullet) on one end, and a cap (like a match) on the other end. It is loaded in the gun. When the trigger of the gun is pulled it causes a firing pin to strike the cap on the cartridge. The cap ignites the explosive in the cartridge causing a very rapid expansion of the combustion gases inside the cartridge. The gases push on the walls of the cartridge and the bullet. The gun supports the walls of the cartridge and prevents the cartridge from deforming or tearing. But something has to give to release all that pressure. The bullet is what gives. The expanding gases push it through the barrel of the gun. If the gun is properly designed the bullet leaves the gun before the friction of the barrel starts to slow it down. If the shooter has aimed the gun properly the bullet hits the target.
