Call me a conspiracy theorist, but union workers walk off set due to complaints about conditons and are replaced on the morning of the incident. Is it possible a disgruntled union worker placed a live round in the gun to possibly show the non-union replacements as incompetent when the gun goes off? Probably not expecting it would not be aimed at someone, but just to startle the cast and directors. Just throwing out theories.

They walked off due to not getting paid for 3 weeks, their hotel rooms taken away, Covid Safety, and GUN SAFTY ISSUES.
The the final straw came when there were 2 accidental discharges with live ammo.
Baldwin’s shooting incident was number 3.
Why live ammo?
Because blanks don’t give the look of recoil that a live round gives.
So sometimes real ammo is used in isolated controlled settings.
But this was a low budget film so hiring and bringing in experts from L.A. was expensive.
Baldwin’s body double apparently had the 2 firearm incidents before the crew walked. So this was an on-going problem.
Nothing would surprise at this point, unless Baldwin actually has to serve time for this action.
That would definitely expose the incompetence. A union thug can leave a loaded weapon, but the next handler would then check and make sure it was cold.
Well, a .44 round made its way onto the set and into a gun fired by Baldwin. How did that happen? is a legitimate question and you offer a possible answer. Not saying its the correct answer, but it’s a possibility. We’ll probably never know the truth, but I know this: The current media narrative stinks to high heaven.
