While I'm no expert, I have shot more than one or two windshields out of old car-wrecks with a pellet gun and a 22 and seen bullet holes in old farmhouse windows and none that I can remember left multiple stress cracks in the glass like that door had.
It is almost like someone was leaning against the door with their hands and elbows and pushed on the glass in multiple places at once, thereby leaving several "stars" in the glass from which cracks extend outward in all directions but without actually shattering it to the point that it falls out of the frame.
Then, we see Bruce walking away with his right hand in his belt up to the knuckles.
No gun is observable.
So what is Bruce doing with his hand in his belt?
A) he is holding a gun.
or
B) he is holding his hand in his belt because his fingers are cut from the glass (or at least he thinks they are cut).
...if B) then why in his belt?
Answer: He's a ghost...does a ghost bleed...I don't know but if we don't think to ask the question "Why no blood" then we are caught more off-guard by the surprise ending.
So, while we wait for the blue-ray edition to see if the hand in belt is holding something, the question is open to interpretation.
Personally, I don't think it is a gun...but I can't prove it...but neither can it be conclusively proven that it IS a gun, so I stand by my movie-with-no-gun list as it is written.
Maybe someone can find the script on the web and see what it says.

and btw, he does have a gun at the "end" of 12 Monkeys.
