      You fail to understand the chain of command on any film or theatre location where any legally controlled weapons are being used, whether they are tanks, handguns, crossbows, flick knives or pikes. The ARMOURER has TOTAL responsibility for the managament and control of everything that happens whilst the weapons are out of his/her SECURE armoury location. Furthermore, the armourer is ultimately responsible for ensuring that those using the arms are sufficiently familiar with their operation that they can use them with an acceptable level of safety. LIke it or not, THE BUCK STOPS TOTALLY WITH THE ARMOURER. End of.

    She was set up for failure from the beginning. She lacked experience and this was her first job as an armorer. She was put in that position because she was cheap and wasn't hired through the acting union. Bottom line, she wasn't qualified. The entire production was done on a tiny budget and a dozen or more people walked off the set due to poor/unsafe working conditions and being put in the cheapest motel possible. This failure was of Alec Baldwin's own making.

      Not on a movie set. There is a protocol for this - for good reason. The ARMOROR is responsible for the gun. After handing an actor (could be Keanu Reeves or Alec Baldwin or Opie Taylor) a safe firearm, if that actor opens the cylinder (on a revolver) - the armoror should stop the scene and take the gun back and re-check it. NOBODY is allowed to open the gun other than the armoror.
      NOBODY is supposed to be near the camera or behind the camera if the scene calls for an actor to point a gun in the direction of the camera.
      EVERYBODY on set is supposed to insist that the armoror show everybody that the gun is safe. (not just the actor it is being handed to)

The responsibility for this is squarely in the hands of the armorer and whoever brough that gun onto set.

I did not have one safety issue with my 11 to 14 year-old boys because I was qualified and enforced safety rules to the letter. Was she a diversity hire? How did she get this important job? Did she allow live rounds on the movie set? There should have been no live rounds allowed within a hundred miles of the set. How could she let this happen? Who loaded the weapon with live rounds? Were the weapons on set locked up when not in use? Did the armorer personally clear each weapon before handing it over to the actor? What the heck was going on with this movie production?

    First and foremost, one should never point, even, an empty gun at anyone or anything that’s is not an intended target. Period. Baldwin’s father was a forearms instructor, and the actor should have known the first safety rule. So sad, that many lives have been ruined.
