He got bent out of shape about it
To take offense; to become angry, agitated or upset.
It's figurative language and I think translating it in a word-for-word manner won't give us the right meaning in English. In addition, the English-speaking reader won't understand it.

| Thanks for your help. I think "bent out of shape" is good for أتعوج but I was also concerned about the part of the sentence that mentioned the 9mm bullet. |
