SPOILER: Question about A+J and the gun

Great movie! Just saw it again with director's commentary. He mentions the wrestling scene with the gun, and the line "Do it!". I've replayed that scene, but still not certain which one said it. Thanks to all who respond!

Adrian says it just before the gun goes off.

I always thought it was Jack. Why would Adrian say it? This mean I will watch the film again this week end.

I always thought it was Jack, wanting to end it all but now you make me doubt.

Thanks a lump, Y'All! LOL! Now you see my dilemma! The director seems to say it was obvious, but I'm still not sure, even after all your HELP, guys! lol. It seems to me, Adrian's lips didn't sync the phrase, tho the camera was on him. Sure, could be an editor's slip. If I recall, Jack had control of the gun (and the entire situation due to his past training), so I think he positioned the gun so Adrian would shoot him. I don't know if Adrian got the nerve to pull the trigger, or if it was Jack's finger manipulating Adrian. (Sincerely, thanks for responding to you all!)

stumped on this one too mate! felt throughout that Jack pulled the trigger on himself as he was in total control of the fight. I will stand by that to keep my mnd at ease :)
