One major rule is never hand dangerous weapons to arrogant Leftists.
From a Brit paper:
“Hannah Gutierrez Reed, 24, was the armorer on the set of Rust, which has since suspended production in New Mexico after the fatal shooting on Thursday of Halyna Hutchins.
Ms Reed is the daughter of longtime Hollywood armorer Thell Reed.”
I find it hard to believe that Thell Reed’s daughter was unfamiliar with guns. He was one of the top fast draw shooters in the 60’s and was part of the group, along with Jeff Cooper and Roy Weaver, that helped pioneer the “modern technique” of the pistol. Weird....
Why did they use a real gun? Use a fake plastic one and add the noise, and visuals in post-production.
