1. All firearms are loaded.
2. NEVER point a firearm at anything you are not willing to destroy.
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until sights are lined up on the target.
4. Be sure of your target and what is behind it.
Break one of these rules and you might be alright....break two........you see the results.
Looks as though Mr. Liberal Baldwin just had a crash course in firearms etiquette at others expense. Can’t blame the gun here.
Nope, even with prop guns safety rules apply.
You can’t shoot a movie if you follow rule number two. At least certain kinds of movies. Thousands of scenes require pointing a gun at someone without the actor willing to kill anyone.
A lot of filming a movie necessitates the breaking of those rules. But there’s people with the job of making sure that’s OK. It’s not blaming the gun, it’s the guy who was supposed to be safety checking that gun before it got on set, and again before it got handed to an actor, and between every take.
