Even a highly trained person under that much pressure basically shooting in the dark wouldn’t likely hit the target.

It doesn’t matter, he walked in pretty much knowing that no one else has a gun in there. Even if someone shot back and hit his armor it can knock him down. Or even if someone was shooting at him it would obviously draw his attention away from shooting random people and he would most likely shoot back, possibly sparing other peoples lives.
