“”It was murder.
In a movie, pulling the trigger is totally unnecessary. The sound can be dubbed””
There’s a lot more to a gun firing than just the sound. Good grief! The flash, the smoke in this case and the recoil.
CGI for flash? Acting for recoil?

Yes, but flash, smoke and recoil can ALSO be done with a fake gun; you do NOT use anything that is capable of injuring someone - for a pretend movie.
As a kid, I had a dime store gun that fired the little plastic “caps” individually.. got a flash, got smoke, got recoil and got a big BANG too.
The worst it could do to a human was make your ears ring for a while.
There’s NO excuse to use a “prop” firearm that can really hurt someone.. especially after all the prior incidents where actors have been killed by them.
