BREAKING: Alec Baldwin to be charged with involuntarymanslaughter in fatal Rust shooting
The announcement of the charge comes over two years after AlecBaldwin shot and killed 42-year-old cinematographer HalynaHutchins and injured director Joel Souza with a live round from aprop gun.
I saw something years ago that gave me the impression that many of the guns they use are real, but the ammo is fake. But I could be wrong, so not arguing the point.
I was lead to believe the barrels of prop guns are intentionally too narrow to allow a proper caliber projectile to escape, they can fire blank round gas and smoke can leave the barrel, but if you put a live round in it and fired it'd damage it, perhaps even spectacularly.
but who knows if it was a 44 and someone put a 357 in it.. or anything with the right size brass and smaller projectile?
