I think it was a shot. See the black spot on the railing in the last panel? It wasn't there two panels earlier.

"crack" is a better sound effect than "blam" for a lot of guns, but "blam" is unambiguously the sound effect of a gun.
"blam" -- we know a gun fired.
"crack" plus muzzle flash and barrel flip -- we know a gun fired.
"crack" without muzzle flash or barrel flip -- I'm not sure what happened. Maybe the gun fired?
Overall I think the gun fired, but I would argue for changing the sound effect to "blam" or adding some muzzle flash.
Of course it could be a futuristic time traveler pistol that makes no noise and has no barrel flash, which fires a self-accelerating projectile so there's not enough recoil to cause muzzle flip, but whose projectile breaks the sound barrier making a "crack" sound effect. In which case I everything is perfect! But I'd suggest adding a thought bubble on future guy, saying "WELP, I JUST FIRED MY PISTOL."
