Sylvester Stallone Has A Surprising Attitude Toward Guns On Film Sets (barf alert)
msn ^ | 7 nov 2022 | Witney Seibold

"No one has shot more blanks than me. On 'Rambo,' I wanted to show what a .50-caliber could do to a human being. We took a dummy and filled it with 200 pounds of beef. I thought, 'When I fire, it will knock the dummy over.' There were no bullets in the gun. It was just the force of the compression in the shell. But it turned the dummy into mist. It blew it apart. Then I turned the .50-caliber to a row of bamboo trees and it literally cut them in half. This is without bullets!"

We took a dummy and filled it with 200 pounds of beef.

And it’s proved to be a winning formula for the “Rambo” and “Rocky” movies.

Too dumb? Here's what a liberal county in WA considers a huge gun hoard.

Somebody oughta tell Stallone that those cartridges still have wadding to hold the powder charges in place. No wadding, no bang. “Blank” cartridges ain’t “blank”...and can kill you without a “bullet”.

Everyone assumed Rambo is a conservative. President Reagan posted a picture going, 'Rambo's a Republican.' I went, 'Uh-oh.' Rambo is totally neutral."

Uh, OK.

Maybe should have taken Alec Baldwin with him for the testing . . .

Rambo. That’s a blast from the past. I haven’t hear that name in decades.

Dislike him all you want, but he’s definitely not dumb. I watched an interview with him this past spring. He writes scripts, produces, and is amazingly knowledgeable on his film history.
I was very surprised.

“cartridges still have wadding to hold the powder charges in place”

Is Stallone saying the wadding cut the bamboo trees in half, can wadding to that?

Stallone believes blanks aren’t dangerous? Hell... load an AR-15 with blanks... remove the BFA... and shoot it at a piece of cardboard just a few feet away... observe what happens. All his statement does is reiterate that he’s ignorant.

Explosive force and gas coming out of the barrel can. Would have to be pretty close though.

If his point that even blank loaded guns are dangerous he’s correct. Remember the actor, Jon Eric Hexum, iirc, pointed a pistol to his temple as a joke and pulled the trigger. He died several days later in a coma.

If he thinks citizens don’t have a right or need for the 2nd amendment he’s an idiot.
