[Daredevil] * **Spoilers** * about Wesley

So Wesley was this cool, collected, scary intelligent guy. He also could command the loyalty of Kingpin's men. 

So he goes to kidnap Karen himself. I get this is a whole 'if you want it done right thing' and I get that he goes alone because he wants as many men as possible on Fisk. 

My question is this: Why the hell did he put a loaded gun on the table where she could easily reach it? That's a stupid risk to take, especially for someone as rational as Wesley. Putting out in the middle of the table didn't make the threat more potent than suing it on his end of the table, or simply showing her the gun and keeping it in his hand.

What was his plan here?

Intimidation usually works for him.  What he didn't account for was his Pavlovian reaction to his phone ringing.   He heard his phone, heard Fisk beckoning for him, and went to answer his master without thought.
