It just made nothing but sense for "Landry's" first reaction to be to whip out the pistol and waste the kid without even a second thought. In my mind at least, that's what a real professional would do. It just further pushes along the fact that Walt and Jessie are no longer 2 wannabe dudes cooking in a basement somewhere and are now playing with the big boys.
All of that being said, however, it was a disturbing scene considering all of the effort they just went through to avoid killing the train engineer and conductor.

Pretty shocking. I was almsot at the point where I thought Landry was going to turn out to be a NARC. He just seemed a little too into the job for someone on the bottom rung probably being paid peanuts. Apparently, he's just a psycho though.
