Silver fires his rifle at the drone who peaks over the rails and into the narrow space between the flights of stairs. One bullet is unaccounted for, likely having gone all the way to the ceiling. Another goes into the flight of stairs on the other side. And another would have hit the drone, save that the bottom of the set of stairs is in the way. There is a small explosion of wooden splinters. But another bullet seems to hit its mark, though exactly where and to what effect is hard to say. The creature flinches and pulls back out of sight.
From beneath and behind Silver, he can hear a ching ching ching

Silver advances up the stairs again, keeping his rifle aimed towards the floor he saw the changeling on.

Waiting for the game to resume soon. I want to read moar.

Hmm...so, here's an idea. Since he can see the gun barrel, can he use his magic to pull the gun forward? Even if it remains in the changeling's grasp, perhaps he will be pulled out into the open for an easy shot.

Hmmmm.... this is doable from a close distance, but I'm not sure Silver is close enough for that to be viable. Silver is also presumably using magic to support the front of his rifle

While Silver doesn't quite need to be immediately outside of the door for this to be viable, he may as well approach that closely. As Silver goes up the stairs clockwise, approaching the door at the landing from the left, Silver does not see anycreature on the right side of the entryway. He can simply see a polished softwood floor, and a sort of coral-red colored wall.

Silver gives a hoof motion to his companions towards the exposed gun barrel. He shoulders his rifle so he can use the full concentration of his magic, grabs onto the end of the exposed gun barrel, and pulls hard.

Silver tugs on the gun, and pulls it forward. He can feel the resistance as the creature on the other side pulls it back. It comes forward, a little further out. Silver can see by the sight of it that it is a machine carbine, though he cannot see the details of it. Beneath him, and behind him, Spectral Streak and the Salmon station move move forward. And within the hallway, and enemy approaches

Silver definitely lucked out, there.
If it's possible, what would the penalty be for blind firing?

Hmm...any penalty for trying to shoot through the wall, or would the changeling he thinks is around the corner just have a bonus to his AC?

It's at least a +6 AC bonus for the opponent, representative of Silver's difficulty in determining where he actually is, and thus where to aim the weapon.

"Hmm..."
Silver gets an idea, pulls out his gas mask, and levitates it so it's peeking out into the doorway.

Silver pulls the gas mask back. That confirms it, the bullets may have stopped but they're watching the doorway like a hawk. With the break in fighting, he looks back to his companions to check up on them, especially the salmon stallion.

The Salmon Stallion is able to stand up, but that's almost it. He's heavily bleeding and breathing loudly.

Silver injects the stallion with the magical fluid, then morphine, and presumably disinfects the wound and bandages it. The Stallion isn’t exactly fine, but he’s not getting any worse, and certainly seems to be in less pain.

Spectral Streak replies,
“Yeah, it’s an obvious ambush point. They wanted to wait at the door, but they drew back a little further when that didn’t work out.”

The creature seems to be blind firing, placing a black gun over the railing and aiming down, moving the barrel around. The stairs above them seem to absorb some of the shots, and some fall short, while a few hit the stairs right next to Silver, Streak, and the Salmon pony. But one seems to hit Spectral Streak, who recoils in pain.

Silver looks up, and locates the creature, a black drone holding a black rifle and leaning over the railing. The first shot goes high, and hits the wall above and behind the creature. But the second shot hits.

Silver can see that they do have some supplies left, perhaps because the set of supplies seems to have originated in two different kits. There is some magic fluid, morphine, antiseptic, plasma, and bandages left.

“Yeah. We are. But we’ll have even more issues if we let these buggers be. We’ll be full of holes patched up by bandages and coagulant, with plasma instead of blood and working on adrenaline and morphine, but it’ll be us here alive at the end of the day, and not those bugs. I’ve lived too long to let them take it from me.”

Silver nods, his son's speech driving him on. He grabs his Jenny and holds it at the ready.

Silver goes back to the doorway. Left with few options, he switches to full auto and blindfires a burst around the corner with his Jenny.
Feel free to subtract what the additional penalty for blindfire would be.

Джекпот!
Thanking Celestia for this lucky find, Silver eagerly picks up the dropped grenade. He pulls the pin with a CHINK, and chucks the concussive grenade through the doorway towards the changelings.

Silver wastes no time and pushes through the doorway while aiming down his Jenny's sights. He prefires a short burst to keep the enemies suppressed.

Yes.
Looking inside, Silver can see fallen ceiling tiles and bits of drywall covering parts of a varnished wood floor, which already has streaks of blue blood. The hallway goes two ways, left and right, though it is clear that most of the interest is to the left. To the left the hallway opens to elevator banks and ultimately, further back, a reception desk.
On the right, not far at all from the door, Silver sees a dead, black drone on the ground. He has a beige trench coat soaked in blue blood, a helmet that Silver recognizes as being Changeling military issue of the style of the last war, and next to him, he has a weapon that Silver has never seen before. The weapon is made almost entirely out of metal painted black, except with a wooden butt stock and bakelite handgrips. It has a long, curved and dimpled magazine in front of the grip, a gas block above the barrel, simple iron sights, and a barrel that is shorter than the Jenny's, but a length that is slightly greater.
To the left, where the hallway expands to include the elevator bank, Silver sees another dead drone leaning against the wall, in an area that would have been cover from an attack from the door. This drone has no clothing, but also has a military helmet. He has multiple bullet wounds, and a machine carbine before him.

Taking a hold of the helmet of the trench coated changeling and, much like he did with the gas mask, peaks it out slowly into the left side of the hallway.
