HOW can you be this stoopid?
Blanks look nothing like a live round unless you are drunk, stoned or blind.

Why weren’t they using stage guns? Stage guns won’t fire a live round via chamber and barrel restrictions.

I hope they hang the varmint responsible for this.

The Tombstone Vigilantes were formed in 1946 and are dedicated to preserving and passing along Tombstone’s history to tourists who visit the town near the U.S.-Mexico border. The group also performs mock hangings where unsuspecting victims are tried and convicted by the Tombstone Vigilantes. What could go wrong?

We were leaving Tombstone as this happened. The female bystander was hit with shrapnel and refused medical treatment per other news sources. Also the reenactor arrived late and did not have his firearm safety inspected as is the usual policy. The Vigilantes are not a “paid professional” group. They are volunteers and run on donations. They have been safely doing reenactments for years. I am surprised this happened but if you cut corners on safety, something is bound to happen.

In the defensive fire training I’ve participated in, both with blanks and plastic bullets, all participants either load the weapon to be aimed at them, or watched the loading.
Live ammo is prohibited from the location.

I’ve seen shootouts in Guthrie Oklahoma and Branson Missouri.
When one of the “lawmen” passed me I glanced down and saw his pistol was an old black powder front loader with the nipple areas ground down so nothing could be fired in it.
When the “shootout” happened, different guns were used and I noticed, during a reload, the blanks casings were black, not brass. I was not able to get close enough to see what they really were.
Blanks should be marked. There is no way you can mistake a real cartridge for a blank.
To chase off stray dogs, I use plastic cases with primers and wax “bullets”. No powder. They WILL STING.

"The group also performs mock hangings where unsuspecting victims are tried and convicted by the Tombstone Vigilantes." Stay tuned...

That is really odd, I’ll follow this one. That play acting gun fight has been going on as long as I remember. The Crystal Palace Saloon was a beer stop on the way to Douglas for me back in the day.
