I watched a guy shooting THIS HUGE Pistol. Custom Job (we were learning to machine our own at this course).

And this happened. the previous round was in the barrel, when he fired the second round, you could actually see the BULGE in the barrel.

We were very lucky that thing did not shatter a spew shrapnel.

Recently read Baldwin's other claim that he did not point Christine at the two people an unpulled trigger magically shot.
That must mean Christine can also throw curved balls.

I saw the movie. Let's call that gun "Christine."

Yes. There is a desperate need for Critical Race Theory to be taught to baby guns.

You are in good company with others here in the Gulch on that thought.
Agreed, unless he can bribe the armorer to take the fall for him, in a fair trial
with an impartial, informed judge he should be found guilty and liable for civil damages.
Even if the armorer does take the fall, as a producer, the lying scum could still be liable for civil damages.

Another thought....: if the firearm in question is a 45 Long Colt shooting revolver, it’s is most likely single action. Which means SOMEBODY pulled the hammer back and advanced the cylinder onto a live round. If it’s double action it takes quite a bit of trigger force to advance the cylinder and pull the hammer back. He’s a lying sack of shit. He using the normal public’s ignorance to try to control the narrative. Not even the dumbest armorer would hand someone a “cocked” firearm. He pulled the hammer back one way or another.

That ancient Colt had some kind of primitive targeting tech that it knew to discharge when the muzzle passed over Center of Mass. And Red SUVs drive themselves into Christmas Parades! Accelerating and Zig Zagging as they go.
Sorry. I digress. But, I’m rapidly losing my objectivity.

You can never expect a liberal to take ownership for what they do.Yet, you can always count on a liberal to direct blame away from themselves to forward an agenda.

To those who have never lived that experience,, a few words. Give it a moment to ensure the round is not a hangfire, keeping the muzzle pointed safely. If it went "pop" instead of boom, or made no noise, it might still go off. We used our own handloads, too, and had a primer failure. We always keep a ramrod in the range bag, jic.

he is s dyed in the wool leftist too. no wonder.

I I was the actor pulling the trigger, I would look for myself and see what was loaded and with what.

Yeah, Baldwin just took a huge dump on his own credibility by making that claim.

If he had said: "I was consumed by the acting. I was portraying the character. I pointed the gun and pulled the trigger, but I wasn't expecting the damn thing to go off." I could believe that.

Of course that explanation would have carried a TON more believability if he'd shot the CAMERA and the fragments of hardware or the ricochet had killed the victim.

But even if the evidence proved without a doubt that he pointed the weapon at the person next to or behind the camera, I could find it in the realm of believability that he was simply being childish like a boy who points his cap gun at his mommy.

But his denial of pulling the trigger, especially this late after the fact, well, I'd say he just pulled a big chunk of the burden of proof off the prosecutor with regards to the NEGLIGENCE aspect of the criminal case, and the civil case as well.

I still don't think that the death was an intentional homicide, that's just a bit too far fetched given what's been made public.

A movie star who's ego makes him a legend in his own mind knows EVERYTHING.
For safety's sake stay away from such people. Especially a libtard with a firearm.

The cause would have been helped even more (along with future movies) if he had been looking into the barrel at the time he dropped the hammer.

Gross negligence - pure and simple.

As long as this corrupt collectivist (but I repeat myself) was expressing grief for the needless ending of someone's life, he was deserving of consideration for being involved in a horrible accident. But for him to try to turn his own action - and his production company's demonstrable negligence - into an attack on the Second Amendment (therefore an attack on human rights,) is at once absurd on its face, contemptible in its ethics, and...

... a big plus for the cause of the right to keep and bear arms.

Every word that comes out of his mouth on the idea that guns and our right to them are somehow responsible for this lady's death, is an evasion of responsibility and an attempt to harness that tragedy for tangential political ends so blatant as to rankle even the most goose-stepping of anti-gun mentalities. Baldwin has just inadvertently helped the cause of strengthening the Second Amendment, IMO.
.

I recently decided that Trump should do weekly impersonations of Baldwin having misfires....I have a sick sense of humor. But, all good humor is based in reality...

He asked that police officers start acting as prop managers on set. That's rich...

So, he ONLY Picked Up A Gun.
Pointed The Gun at someone
And Squeezed The Trigger.

I totaly see how that's the guns fault.
The gun should have known it was a killer when it was born! LOL

Guilty of criminal negligence--if nothing else.

Unless you are a blow-hard, leftist, loud-mouth, ignorant, brown-nosing, know-it-all @$$#0|ε and fan the hammer of a revolver as if you knew how a gun worked.

Me dino knows how movie cowboys with a free hand "fans" shot after shot with single action pistols.
They keep the trigger pressed back after firing the first shot.
Did that dry firing a Civil War replica I only display in the living room now.
For some funny reason the hammer decided to get stuck,
It was $100 made in Spain el cheapo anyway.
Did fire it for real three or four times. I could actually order black powder in the mail! That surprised me.
Never fanned it loaded. Too dangerous. Only Clint Eastwood can fantasy shoot four bad boys like that in a Spaghetti Western.

Me dino never called my daughter a pig.

To work for the Alabama Department of Corrections,me dino had to NRA qualify with an AR-15, a Remington 12-guage pump shotgun and a Smith & Wesson .38 revolver each and every year of the 21 years I was employed.
Recall being on the pistol range hearing the same lecture about gun safety for the about keeping my finger out of the trigger guard (that metal ring around the trigger) until I had taken aim at the target and was told to open fire.
That's because over and over again, I would hear the range instructor say, "THE ONLY WAY THAT GUN CAN SHOOT IS WHEN YOU PULL THE TRIGGER."

I agree. Baldwin has no ethics or honor.
