Tha is why Baldwin doesn't go anywhere alone. As been reported by various news sources over the years, more of than not, he has a bodyguard.

He's done that repeatedly over the years. Sooner or later, he'll do that to a guy that doesn't care who he is and give him the proper beating he should have gotten years ago. Like most bullies, they get real quiet after they lose a couple of teeth.

My observations exactly.

John Schneider's technical vocabulary is terrible (and I did call him out on this too!) but he clearly knows how to handle a sixgun and its worth a look IMHO. If the Pietta operated the same way, and the gun is in good functional condition, it could not have "gone off" without Baldwin pulling the trigger.

Kind of funny that he was so hesitant to dry fire the gun but he was spinning the cylinder like a little kid and also took the cylinder pin and cylinder out, which I would be much more inclined to be nervous about doing to someone else's gun without asking.

Agreed, but think he was just trying to be respectful as was revealed in the last moments of the report. -A-

That was almost painful to watch. Not quite. But almost.

Yeah, Peggi and I both put our hands over our faces before that was done.

IMO the only gun that matters is the Pietta used in the Rust shooting and we won't know if that one functions as designed until the lab report is released.

It appeared that the Colt SAA used in the video was being filmed by the owner of the Colt, so I assume the owner had discussed what he could do, or would have at least stopped him if he was doing anything he was concerned would harm the gun.
I too cringed at all the cylinder spinning during the video, but I guess the owner wasn't, or at least didn't cut the video to ask him to stop.

Some good insights here from an experienced Armorer on set and what is happening in the movie industry. -Tutt

i liked when the assistant director, who admits he said the gun ' was cold' but didnt check it, said that he thought the armorer had " opened the hatch and rotated the drum " to make sure the gun was empty.

and now i know i have been using the wrong terminology all these years !!

I have had a negative opinion of baldwin for a long time. With that in mind, his statement makes me angry and shows me just how shallow of a person he is.
JMHO

100% agree.....
