Nope. Armorers repair guns. Just like auto mechanics tune cars.

Shooters load mags, insert mags into mag wells, racks the slide, gets asight picture of the target and what’s behind it, and presses the trigger.

Armorers also clear weapons. Every weapon I handed in went to the armorer and was cleared and inspected. Duties of military armorer; inspecting weapons, cleaning weapons, performing repairs , OPERATING FIRING RANGE. I simply don’t understand the lackadaisical treatment of weapons on this set. Guns should be stored and secured on set. Every weapon should be cleared on turn in and issue. Everyone on the set using a weapon should be taught or have a review of basic gun safety and have familiarization with weapons on set. Live bullets and blanks should be stored in separate locked containers. Practicing with live rounds then turning in the weapon to be reissued with out being cleared is insane. Any knuckle headed private in the army could do a better job. No excuse for unsafe practice.
