You may be correct GM of course. I just wonder if an actor on a film set is expected to check the ammunition in the gun? Wouldn't it be dangerous to rely on an actor to identify if ammo is live? I just wonder if the responsibility sits with them?
Technicians set up all types of explosives, firearms, bombs and other devices for floor managers/directors to dictate what happens - and for actors to do what they're told, whilst remembering their lines/script. If Baldwin is to be blamed, others should be brought to account also.

Most actors and crew dry fire the firearm 6x each to make the sure the gun is empty. I was told by my father that is "No such thing as an empty gun" I have stuck by that motto for decades. I remember seeing my parents cleaning their gun collection, I was giving a speech about firearm safety and it took out the any curiosity in me. So a firearm was a just farm tool to them just like a shovel.
