I hope your friend is OK.
I wouldn't salvage much.
Definitely NOT the barrel.
Maybe some of the trigger parts like springs, maybe the sear.
Rear bolt baffle ?
You would know better than us since you have the rifle.
Not many (if any) of us had this happen, so our experience will not be very helpful.
Please take some pics of the rifle parts. I'm sure I'm not the only one that would love to see.
But seriously I hope your friend doesn't have any permanent reminders on his hands arms body or face. For sure hope not the face.
