“I pulled the hammer as far back as I could without cocking the gun,” Baldwin said. “I let go of the hammer and bang, the gun goes off.”

Freaking idiot.
The explanation has no plausibility whatsoever.
Find a tall tree and a short rope.

The ever evolving story.
“I don’t know what happened”
“I didn’t pull the trigger”
“I let go of the hammer”
Dude. You just don’t point a gun at another person.

When you pull the hammer back on a single action and your finger is on the trigger the gun will go off when you let go of the hammer. That is how fanning shooting works. Dumbass.

Anyone have single action that can corroborate?
I know at half-cock the cylinder will rotate.
At full cock the mechanism is engaged to pull the trigger releasing the hammer to strike.
To release half-cock back to hammer arrest I think you have to squeeze the trigger a little bit and control a hammers descent on back into its resting position.
Is there a point between half cock and full cock if that if the hammer is let go it will return to the firing pin on assisted?
I’m not sure but I don’t think so, but I could be wrong cuz I’ve never had a single action.

“Baldwin says that Hutchins told him to begin cocking the hammer for a particular shot. “
I wonder if this is going to be a big part of their defense.. “She told me to do it.”

Easy to solve. Mandatory gun training and license for all people on a movie set. Daily training before the start of filming each day. It’s time for government to protect the innocent! Of course all movie personal should strongly support such acts because they believe government is the solution!

So he tried to half cock the gun.
While I am not 100% familiar with that specific revolver, if you have a mechanical issue and the hammer falls on the primer and goes bang.
There are some older guns that was a known issue.
