NOTE: NO prop guns contain a firing pin. This was murder
 Quoting: Sentinel2021


They don't? But they have to set off blanks don't they?

From what I understand lots of 'guns' in movies are completely inert props, but that there are also 'hero' guns - i.e. guns that have been demilled to either fire only blanks (which need to set off primers which requires a firing pin) or even real firearms capable of chambering and firing live ammunition but supposed to be used with blanks.

Did something change in the past few years that makes the above no longer apply?

That's a good question ! If it was an accident then usually an accidental shot would hit someone in the foot or the arm, since the person is not aiming. This gun was pointed at someone and it seems like it might have been aimed.

Time to clean up the messy reporting on Alec Baldwin’s negligent shooting of cinematographer Halyna Hutchins and director Joel Souza. We still do not know what firearm was used, but the film was being shot on a movie set used principally for 19th Century westerns–Blazing Saddles and Jimmy Stewarts’ The Man From Laramie. So it is highly likely that Baldwin was shooting a revolver and not a semi-automatic pistol (e.g., Glock, Sig Sauer, Berretta).

Semi-automatic pistols are a 20th Century invention and became a staple of military equipment after World War II. There are two types of revolvers–Single Action and Double Action. Single Action means that when you pull the trigger the hammer is released and the gun fires. This was in widespread use in the West during the cowboy era. The cylinder that holds the ammunition is not easily removed and you must open a loading gate to insert only one round at a time into the revolver. Double Action is what most people associate with a revolver. That means when you pull the trigger it cocks the hammer and then, as you continue to apply pressure to the trigger, releases the hammer and fires the pistol.

There also is no such thing as an “accidental” discharge. If a firearm is fired unintentionally it is negligence. Gun accidents are caused by only two things–ignorance and/or carelessness. If you are holding a pistol, it will not fire unless you put your finger on the trigger.

A talented cinematographer is dead because at least two people did not follow the fundamental rules of gun safety–Alec Baldwin and the Assistant Director who handed him the firearm with live ammunition loaded. Then there are questions to be answered by the armorer (the guy or gal in charge of insuring the firearms and ammunition are properly stored when not in use and properly loaded with blank ammunition) and the person in charge of props.

The worst thing you can do when handling a gun of any kind is to assume it is unloaded and safe. It is that kind of negligence that gets innocent people killed. That’s what happened in New Mexico to this poor woman.

One shot kill. And another wounded. Bullet was a huge round and had to be aimed center mass or through the head.

I have a long time friend who is a camera man and movie producer…. He had a key role on bay watch for 10 years.

I sent him the story about Baldwin right as it broke…. During our text conversation, he said that most weapons used on the sets are real and that there should always be a paranoid prop master who loads and safely tests the weapons used.

Not necessarily.

He aimed the gun at crew and pulled the trigger FFS.

Unless they were doing a screenshot looking down the barrel of the gun, he's in some trouble.

Even if that is true, no one should have been behind that camera for the take, and he should have known that.

But it's liberal hellhole NM. He'll probably skate. Sure as fuck the Biden feds won't charge him.

There simply was no opportunity for Baldwin to open the breach and ensure the round was a blank before firing it. He had to fire it in order to determine whether it was safe to fire.
