I stand by the possibility this was caused by what I wrote above, a jammed weapon that fired upon opening the feed tray cover, the chamber may have been empty and the casing may have been on the face of the bolt, who knows.
That said, if you cannot place a machinegun on safe than you'd better grab the charging handle before you open the feed tray.
This sounds more and more like 99% fault of the firearms "instructor".

I'd say about 100% fault of the firearms Instructor for bringing a hot MG into a safe area where you are giving inital weapons familirzation to a bunch of guys who don't know a damn thing about the weapon.
