Why did they use a real gun? Use a fake plastic one and add the noise, and visuals in post-production.

I guarantee this will be a new law now.
Some of the old TV shows such as CHIPS used rubber pistols.
Some movies used rubber firearms. I remember seeing a rubber 45-70 Springfield bent in one action scene, then be straight in the next.
In one old TV show, Claude Akins used his sheriff father’s pistol till someone stole it on the set.
With today’s incompetence of actors with firearms,maybe they should just point their finger and say “bang”. Then have a CGI gun replace it.
In the old TV show Wyatt Earp the Hugh O’Brian demanded full power blanks be used. Some began to lose their hearing as a result.
In seeing a clip of how the original Charlie’s Angels was made they were using true squib loads and adding the BANG later.
