A good video showing that it was impossible to shoot without the finger on the trigger. None of the explanations work without a finger on the trigger.

I read that the gun used has a safety mechanism built in so that it cannot fire unless trigger is activated.

Single action weapon can only fire one live round at a time.

If Baldwin had his finger on trigger when he did cross draw, then pulled back hammer and let it go, the gun will fire.

I saw another one that I thought was even better than what you posted. I’ll try and find it. Same result though...He pulled the trigger....period.
