Ring of light, whats going on here?

I was taking some photos of my friends mexican themed party.
The photo was taken with my K5 and FA31. The on camera flash was on and set to rear curtain slow shutter. The shutter speed was 1/25.
The subject in the photo was spinning his gun around and I was trying to capture the action. The gun in question is plastic and not reflective.

What is going on with that bright halo around the gun? Any ideas?

looks like a reflection off of a polished bolster or binding. Looks like you might have used slow sync flash?
