Yes ... stuff can happen ... very unusual stuff sometimes. But probable is not the same as possible.
The Russian AGS-30 has a muzzle velocity in the neighbourhood of 600 FPS which is 1/3 slower than that .45. The Mk 19 is only marginally faster Yes it's " possible " but very very unlikely under "normal" circumstances"
