It describes how the sound of a gun going off can trigger an largely instinctive reaction to fire one’s own gun. It’s something you have to carefully train people to avoid, since the instincts involved can’t really be suppressed.

I figured that. It’s the NAME that seems off. “Killed by sympathetic fire” is right up there with “Killed by friendly fire”, when it comes to oxymoronic descriptions of a shooting.
