Usually there are multiple safety precautions taken, like plexi screens in front of crew and having a set armourer actually making sure the gun is safe before firing. I bet this was a squib load (a bullet lodged in the barrel) like what happened to Brandon Lee, and the storyboard called for an unfortunate take of Baldwin's character shooting directly at the camera.

Why would there be a bullet in the barrel of a movie gun in the first place? Like, I thought blanks didn’t have bullets.

I’m a scab armorer. You got a nasty scab on your body, I’ll fit it for a suit of tiny armor!

This is now all sounding suspicious af if the reporting is true about the gun being loaded with live ammo and placed on the cart unattended. And right before that particular scene.

. we should return to reading these stories in print and use the power of our own imaginations to produce imagery and characters more fantastical and thrilling than could ever be captured on a medium as lifeless as film.

I agree, film is poison for the mind.

Would a suit of armor stop a bullet??

Just scrap Rust and make a murder mystery about this imo. Alec baldwin will be played by one of the other baldwin brothers.

It’s important to do DNA testing on used panties you buy to confirm authenticity.

That the actors are shown the safety check during a standard procedure does not mean that it is the actor's responsibility to see that the safety check is done.

Alec the Actor is not responsible for gun safety or insuring safety checks. Alec the Producer may be responsible for having a lovely set with unprofessional and unsafe people, depending on whether his producer title meant.

It’s not like this is his first movie with prop guns and safety procedures on set. If he knows all kinds of normal safety procedures are being skipped, then he takes a gun and starts playing with it (including pulling the trigger) he probably does have some responsibility for what happened imo.
