I can't say I know....if I had to guess I would say he just fired a shot so Maggie thought he followed through with it. He's good at keeping his mouth shut to stay out of trouble (i.e. dale's death). He couldn't bring himself to put a bullet in his mom, but it needed to be done. If he just says nothing and brushes it under the rug, he doesn't have to shoot her and everyone thinks it's all ok. I think this because we've seen everything else, every killing/murder/death. The ONLY other death we were left to assume happened was the skinny black guy prisoner that rick locked in the cage with the walkers....turns out he survived and opened the gate to let the walkers in.
