There are very strict laws around handling prop weapons during a film shoot and even blank ammunition is loaded in front of the crew, says Seth Rossman, a Toronto armaments specialist for film and TV productions.

The weapons master is required to be on set whenever a weapon is being used. The Actors' Equity Association's guidelines state that, "Before each use, the weapons master (armorer) should make sure the gun has been test-fired offstage, supervise a test firing, or test fire it him or herself. The weapons master must watch the prop master check the cylinders and barrel to be sure no foreign object or dummy bullet has become lodged inside. All loading of firearms must be done by the property master, armorer or experienced persons working under their direct supervision.

Nowadays, all weapons are checked before blanks are loaded into the weapon. The blanks themselves are never loaded until the very last minute, when all crew is in position, so the armorer knows exactly where every member of the crew is so that no one's walking through any danger areas the armorer has set up.

We don't know what happened on the set of Rust, but it is fairly common to have a gun pointed at the camera, and by extension the cinematographer, to get a certain angle.

"We've all seen the very famous shots in films where you get that dramatic effect of a gun being pointed at you, the audience, and of course, it's being pointed toward the camera," explained Steven Hall, a veteran second unit director and cinematographer who has worked on films like Fury and Thor: The Dark World.

To minimize that, one would put a remote camera in that place, or at least, if someone does have to operate the camera, I'm normally protected by safety goggles, a safety visor and often a PERSPEX screen that withstands pretty much anything. Obviously, it wouldn't withstand a real shot from a gun, but it would certainly withstand a blank.

By the time a gun or guns are handed to the actor or actors for a rehearsal or take, the gun or guns have been checked by at least three people experienced with firearms. The actors are not required to "safe" the gun before the cameras roll.

The movie "Rust" had a limited budget, the production company could not afford to hire the world class pros, nor did they even hire members of the union (IATSE Local 44). The weapons master (armorer) for this movie, Hanna Gutierrez, is inexperienced, the movie "Rust" would be her 2nd movie. Due to her inexperience, she was reluctant to take on the job, but she signed on. And, it is obvious from what we know so far that she wasn't up to the job. However, Gutierrez cannot be singled out any more than can Baldwin.

Accidents don't just happen, they are caused, and most often it is a series of mistakes that add up and lead to an accident.

To be clear, I am not Alec Baldwin's defense attorney, I am not attempting to exonerate him from any responsibility in this, rather I am defending his rights as an American citizen. All are innocent until proven guilty in a court of law. Upholding the rule of law is something the l*****ts never do, and I have no intention of sinking to that level.

Aw c'mon, don't you want to see Bolshevik Baldwin perp walked to jail for murder?
Are you that holy?
Bolshevik Baldwin h**es you, well, maybe not now, he'll hire you as a character witness and pay you to keep the love going for him on OPP.
But you are defending the indefensible. Bolshevik Baldwin is a murderer.

Hi microphor. Rumitoid doesn’t understand the reference you made in your post regarding hookers, blow, and sniffing little kids. Understandable why. CNN doesn’t cover or broadcast such propaganda. Personally, I found it be be hilarious. Keep up the good fight.

JR-57 and microphor - Loving this conversation!

What if we find out the live bullets were intentionally placed in the gun by a disgruntled trump supporter as sort of payback for spoofing on your highness?
What sort of karma will we call that ?

It was a tragedy.

You must be running out of Trumps for your posts. Above are a few extras for your use. Feel free to use them as you see fit. I’d h**e to see you stop contributing such words of wisdom and insight. Enjoy!

You are sadly correct. In fact, Bolshevik Baldwin is now more popular than Cackletoe Harrass. The lefties are thinking of running Sniffo and The Snuffer in '24.
