IIRC John Wick's directors are former stuntmen, so they take safety extremely seriously.

The director is specifically Keanu’s stunt double for the Matrix movies.

"Guns are cool and I'mma fire it out back between shoots." This was the fourth accidental discharge on set, and the 24 year old gun nut armorer shot the guns with live ammo for fun when they were not in use.

This particularly rapid💨 unintelligible 😖patter💁 isn't generally heard🧏‍♂️, and if it is🤔, it doesn't matter💁.


Further details from the LA Times

quote:

The actor was preparing to film a scene in which he pulls a gun out of a holster, according to a source close to the production. Crew members had already shouted “cold gun” on the set. The filmmaking team was lining up its camera angles and had yet to retreat to the video village, an on-set area where the crew gathers to watch filming from a distance via a monitor.

Instead, the B-camera operator was on a dolly with a monitor, checking out the potential shots. Hutchins was also looking at the monitor from over the operator’s shoulder, as was the movie’s director, Joel Souza, who was crouching just behind her.

Baldwin removed the gun from its holster once without incident, but the second time he repeated the action, ammunition flew toward the trio around the monitor. The projectile whizzed by the camera operator but penetrated Hutchins near her shoulder, then continued through to Souza. Hutchins immediately fell to the ground as crew members applied pressure to her wound in an attempt to stop the bleeding.

Late Friday, the Associated Press reported that Baldwin was handed a loaded weapon by an assistant director who indicated it was safe to use in the moments before the actor fired it, according to court records. The assistant director did not know the prop gun was loaded with live rounds, according to a search warrant filed in a Santa Fe County court.

The person in charge of overseeing the gun props, known as the armorer, Hannah Gutierrez Reed, could not be reached for comment. The 24-year-old is the daughter of veteran armorer Thell Reed and had recently completed her first film as the head armorer for the movie “The Old Way,” with Clint Howard and Nicolas Cage.

...
A source close to the union said Local 44 does not know what projectile was in the gun and clarified that “live” is an industry term that refers to a gun loaded with some material such as a blank ready for filming.

So, this was during a rehearsal. The gun was supposed to be "cold" (containing nothing). Instead, it was "hot", and furthermore powerful enough it could go straight through one person and into another. The armorer wasn't an unqualified local.

It was a live round as the news has repeated for the past few hours. Bullet, casing, primer, powder. The armorer was shooting between takes. Being a revolver and time period, probably .44 of some variety (there are several) or .45 colt/long colt. Easily tear through a shoulder (especially a normal or smaller framed person) at close range and have momentum for more.

That armorer belongs in jail for now. Prison later.

I think Baldwin earns himself some consequences from this, though not with the cops. He's a producer on the film, he put some of his own money in this, and he, in part with the other producers, decided to go ahead with dangerous work conditions and scab labor. I hope some of his credentials are revoked at a minimum, be nice to see SAG boot him off their books too.

probably an old-rear end colt revolver lacking modern safety features. he might not have even pulled the trigger.

Likely a colt clone, single action army, fancied up. They wouldn't use actual old revolvers for this and there are plenty of cheaper clones out there.

Mechanically they're dead simple. He would have had to pull the trigger to fire it. Single action also means manually cocking the hammer for every shot. Pulling the trigger with the hammer forward does nothing, because there's nothing to release.

do they modernize those so the hammer cant accidentally hit primer like they used to though?

Yeah, for all we know, he pulled the gun out of the holster, his sleeve caught on the hammer, and then when he raised it to the camera, his sleeve pulled the hammer back partially and then released it and fired the bullet. Later revolvers added a mechanism that blocked the hammer until the trigger was pulled, but early revolvers did not and just pulling the hammer back to just before it locked and releasing it could shoot the gun.

using a gun meant to be a prop in a scene you're actively working on to get some range time in between takes is absolutely some bush league poo poo i would expect from a scab. the surprising part is that she managed to be the head armorer on a previous project. so either she does this all the time, and this is the first time that it resulted in a murder, or she decided to just do some irresponsible poo poo for funsies one day and it resulted in a murder.

And modern reproductions/replicas will have different internal guts from the originals, with modern safety features like a transfer bar.

Basically on vintage revolvers the hammer directly strikes the firing pin. On newer ones the firing pin is instead recessed and can't be directly struck by the hammer, when the trigger is pulled a small bar moves up to bridge the gap and allow force to be transferred to the pin.

And by "modern" this is a feature from like the late 1800s/early 1900s.

As far as I understand she was the only armorer and this was her second job. Her dad was a veteran armorer and probably helped her land those jobs despite her obviously not being up for the task.

Kruger gave a better explanation than I could.

My cheap revolver still has the pin in the hammer. The pin just can't get to the primer without the trigger fully depressed. It's a Taurus clone so I probably shouldn't put too much faith in the safeties anyhow.

On the other hand (and even with the previous NDs) if she'd left with the other strikers it's easy to see the remaining production crew going "how hard could it be? hey any of you scabs know how to shoot? you're the armorer now."
