Good question- I've never been in a vacuum.
But, as far as I know... it couldn't.
The combustion would need oxygen to fire effectively- there's a lack of air in the vacuum of space, as I'm sure you're aware.
So, the air would not necessarily be pressurized to allow combustion to occur in quite the same way.
But then- I've never fired a gun in space.

Xor gava nar raelad—-
Hold on, I'm asking him. She wants to know if I were in outer space and had to fire, would the bullet still shoot if it relies on combustion?
-She nods, then goes to the fridge, looking over all the weird fresh, non-tinned non-rationed food-
What if there’s no better word than just not saying anything?
