Sounds like this revolver has a transfer bar safety. If so, Baldwin definitely was pressing the trigger.

All the more reason that live ammo should not have been anywhere on that job site.

It took the FBI to figure that out?

Happy to hear they’re on top of this very important issue…

In other news, it has been determined that water is wet.

“All the more reason that live ammo should not have been anywhere on that job site.”

That’s why Baldwin won’t be the only person charged or sued or both over this incident.

It only took a couple of years for Mr Potato Head’s finest to figure out something that common gun users knew within hours after it happened once they identified the gun used.

So now the story will change to... 'Okay... Maybe I did pull the trigger, but I didn't mean to do it while it was pointed at a director... That was just dumb luck, because I was actually complimenting them on their directing skills and not yelling at them to do a better job, or I'll shoot you.'

Took them this long to figure that out?

Just what I and many other SAA owners have said. It’s not possible.

“HE IS, HE PULLED THE TRIGGER without checking to make sure it wasn’t loaded.
Anyone given a gun to ‘shoot at someone’ should always check for safeties, even if they’re told it was not loaded and safe to use.”

I think a Marine said months ago when this first came out, “if this was a pistol to the Head suicide scene I bet he would have checked that pistol.”

However, Baldwin DOES know about guns. There’s been plenty of armorers on his sets whom have provided safety instruction. Aside from that - Baldwin’s dad was a firearms instructor and taught him about guns.

You’re exactly right. In the 1/4 and 1/2 cock positions pulling the trigger will do nothing.
The hammer must reach the full cock position to set the trigger.

I just wanna make sure - the FBI tested the actual pistol that was used on the set, not just one of that make/model, right?

So, then, hang him high. And why did he hire that ignoramus as his armorer on the set, anyway. She looked down the barrel? Wow.

There is video of Baldwin pulling the trigger. He is guilty. He needs to be in jail.

Being as the FBI lies about everything now, this actually strengthen’s Baldwin’s case.

If Alec decides to publicly lay that accusation on the FBI I will not touch a finger to the keyboard to defend them.

I thought there were questions about the whole setup.

Were they actually ready to film the scene when this happened or was it some kind of rehearsal where bullets weren’t needed and pulling the trigger was not needed?
