That is definitely explosive decompression.
I will concede that if you're flying on a poorly maintained and basically
non-airworthy aircraft, a small additional failure caused by a bullet *could*
precipitate that effect. (happy?)
But then it might fail 5 minutes later, on the next flight, or never.
I would also note that since the skin of an aircraft is about 0.04 in of
aluminium. IF your air marshals were carrying guns designed not to penetrate
that, they would likewise probably not puncture a thick coat.
Here I would have to defer to someone well versed with guns (sorry I only deal
in knives). What sort of bullet can be stopped by a thin piece of aluminium,
and still be useful?
I think it's far more likely that they choose rounds that won't pass through a
human at moderately short range so as to minimise collateral damage, but would
you bother?
Here is another discussion that basically says what I said.
