it's probably easier for a low-buget film-maker to get a real gun than a costly replica with dummy bullets.

My understanding is they are replicas. And replicas fire real bullets. You can tell the author is clueless.

I have been watching some real cheap 1950s horror movies from way back then.

I noticed the revolvers they used went Bang but no flash or gas exited the barrel. This told me the BANG was dubbed in using guns without blanks or any ammo. A true Cold Gun.
