And even though it’s a prop, it should still be handled as if it was loaded at all time, not point it at anyone unless necessary, etc. It may not entirely be his fault, but he was still careless.

minus-squarem-p{3}@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up0·edit-21 year agoOf course the armorer’s job, but safety comes in layers. It’s in a way everyone’s job to apply basic precautions, especially when you’re handling one. Treat all guns as loaded to minimize the potential for harm.

Safety comes in layers and therefore assistant producer David Halls was supposed to double check the gun after the armorer prepared it. He failed at it, the armorer failed at their job and it’s theirs and only theirs fault.
