The fact that a prop gun can chamber live rounds is beyond irresponsible.Can we start with why the fuck were live rounds even there in the first place? Mistere Man posted... Damn the crow all over again.No it's not actually. In the Crow they used two types of ammo. One was essentially just a hollow casing. It can't be fired but otherwise looks exactly like a regular bullet. The other ammo they used was a blank, that is the gunpowder cartridge but no actual bullet. While changing the ammo in the gun, the bullet part of the fake bullet came off and got stuck in the gun. The blank was then loaded and essentially combined with the fake bullet to make a straight up real bullet. --- It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha." https://imgur.com/dQgC4kv ...

Why don't they just make separate prop guns that literally cannot have this happen? I don't need amazingly realistic guns in my movies. Just one person dying isn't worth the gun "realism".

I had heard different in the past that it was a second blank cartridge. Sorry for my incorrect info. I also missed the part where it said it was possibly live ammo at the very end.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon-Erik_Hexum On October 12, 1984, the cast and crew of Cover Up were filming the seventh episode of the series, "Golden Opportunity," on Stage 17 of the 20th Century Fox lot. One of the scenes filmed that day called for Hexum's character to load bullets into a .44 Magnum handgun, so he was provided with a functional gun and blanks. When the scene did not play as the director wanted it to in the master shot, there was a delay in filming. Hexum became restless and impatient during the delay and began playing around to lighten the mood. He had unloaded all but one (blank) round, spun it, andsimulating Russian roulettehe put the revolver to his right temple and pulled the trigger, apparently unaware of the danger. --- END OF LINE ...

What I don't understand is how two people were shot? Did the bullet go through one person and hit the other? I thought only one was fired? You would think if the gun went off by accident the person wouldn't keep pulling the trigger.

The Jon Hexon incident is a special case because the gun was literally pressed up against his head.

How's this...
It's simply a real gun, being used as a prop for a set. That's how a prop is fully functional. It could be anything, such as a working tv or microwave. In this case it's a gun, nothing super out of the norm given the setting. That said, that's some irresponsible as hell behavior. The gun should have been disabled internally or never allowed near live rounds. Someone massively screwed up. This kind of crap is why they use CG in newer movies, as the guns themselves are actually rendered non-functioning, so not even a blank works. ... Copied to Clipboard!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jon-Erik_HexumThat's very tragic, but I did find this section uplifting: With his mother's permission, his body was flown to San Francisco on life support, where his heart was transplanted into a 36-year-old Las Vegas man at California Pacific Medical Center.[8] Hexum's kidneys and corneas were also donated: One cornea went to a 66-year-old man, the other to a young girl. One of the kidney recipients was a critically ill five-year-old boy, and the other was a 43-year-old grandmother of three who had waited eight years for a kidney. Skin that was donated was used to treat a 3-year-old boy with third-degree burns.[9] That's six people whose lives were vastly improved, maybe even saved in a few cases, thanks to that young man. ...

Weapons should never be fired towards an actor, use tv magic to make it look like it is.
Also all guns need ammo fired off into a water tank until empty cartridge and reloaded whenever bullets types are changed. Should hopefully reduce these incidents. ... Copied to Clipboard!
