Isn't that just a post-assembly function check, though? The way she stands there with everyone looking at her suggests she's doing it for a reason.
 
If I was going to test the trigger I wouldn't have a mag in the well for a start.
 
Some weapons have a magazine disconnect safety. Never handled a FAL, maybe it's the same here?

At any rate, if you reverse-search the image, it's from the Brazilian Cadet Corps official social media channels. Some sort of competition on October 25, that also required disassembling and reassembling the rifle with a function check. All participants end their assembly drill by pointing the rifle into the air and pulling the trigger, with an empty mag inside, so maybe that's how the Brazilian military teaches it.

Would be interesting to know.
