“It is NOT an actor’s job to check a firearm.”
BS, basic i.e. BASIC firearms safety is “Check your weapon”
Wrong. That’s how it works in the real world, but not on a Hollywood movie set. Again, there’s a reason why accidents like this are so rare. The rules are VERY strict. It is the armorer’s job (and his/her team), not the actor’s. What Baldwin did or didn’t do as far as handling the firearm AND if he intentionally cut corners by hiring a cheap armorer will be decided in court.

Famous last words “it’s okay it’s not loaded”
“Check your weapons!” Capt Joe McVicar, USMC Force Battalion School (circa 1988) who would kick-your-ass over “Accidental Discharges” Outstanding school by the way.
