Alec Baldwin Shooting

[Rev. Rye]

I can see both sides. And I see failure everywhere on this one.

Prop gun does not mean fake gun, toy gun, it's simply short for property. Maybe the entire industry does not take gun safety seriously enough. I wonder how often they give other potentially lethal 'props' to actors without providing safety training. Apparently Baldwin had none.

I know Michael Mann tends to train his actors in how to use the guns they’ll be firing, but he’s the only director I know who does.
