    What if my single action revolver only has 5 chambers?

    I saw Brandon gayrerras Alec Baldwin video where he tried to demonstrate the gun "going off" by smacking the saa's hammer with an ak mag and he couldn't get a primer detonation. how likely is it to set off the sixth cartridge at half wiener anyway

      that's not what Baldwin did, I'm betting he had the trigger held down, and then fanned the hammer back and let go, probably by accident

      then since he's a liberal hollywood no-guns cuck he doesn't know how guns work or how he could shoot someone without "pulling the trigger"... easy Alec you already had it pulled back all the way

      It's called a transfer bar, been thing since the 70s. Really shitty stuff tends to not have them.

      If it has a transfer bar almost impossible, the hammer doesn't physically touch the firing pin. The bar only engages while the trigger is held down, the hammer falling on its own would hit the frame. Assuming they used a revolver with a transfer bar.

      He probably had an uberti with the safety trigger. The firing pin won't extend all the way if you don't pull the trigger.

        yeah it was an uberti iirc, the youtube vid used the same model as the film crew was using.
        not a fan of that brandon guy but the baldwin 'just went off in my hand' debunk video he did seemed pretty well thought out.

      I'm pretty sure I know what happened. People fighting over liability can argue all day but this is what happened. Arguing over whether or not AB is telling the truth about pulling the trigger or not is irrelevant. The live round in the gun is the only thing that matters because the scene was for him to point the gun at the camera the girl was sitting behind and shoot directly at her. He would have shot her regardless.

      >morons put gun back in prop safe with a single live round in it
      >morons take gun with live round in it out during filming and don't realize there is a round in it they didn't put in themself.
      >moron hands gun to AB

        THIS is the only logical explanation as to why there were live rounds on set - tards were doing informal target practice in the surrounding desert w/ the same guns used during filming.

        This. Imo Baldwin's culpability in the death has more to do with hiring an absolute idiot as an armorer to be cheap. If someone is okay with having live ammo on set and shooting after hours with the prop guns, they shouldn't be an armorer

          The idiot armorer was not his only bad hire. His assistant director-the guy who was supposed to double-check the gun after the armorer did--had a history of not giving a shit about gun safety rules. He had ND's on set before, and had been fired from at least one previous production for flaunting safety rules.

          I think that's the most likely explanation, but there is another possibility. Shortly before the shooting there was some kind of ongoing dispute between Baldwin and a union camera crew regarding safety and pay, and this culminated in the union crew getting pissed and walking off the job. It's certainly possible that one of them slipped a live round into the gun as an act of revenge.

            Why would an assistant director be in charge of inspecting the weapons after the armorer? I’ve never heard of this in my life and have worked with film armorers before. The AD isn’t expected to have any firearms knowledge, it’s not his job. Maybe Baldwin was doing something moronic, but I’ve never seen an armorer hand a gun off to a director or AD. It goes straight to the actor.

              I don't know why, but I clearly remember reading from multiple sources when the story first broke that standard union procedure (Screen Actors Guild?) for handling a firearm on set like this goes as follows:
              -Armorer is supposed to check the weapon and make sure it and whatever cartridges (dummies, blanks, etc.) are correct for the scene
              -The armorer and the AD are specifically supposed to double-check again, in the presence of the talent who will be using the weapon
              -Then the weapon is handed to the actor

              My understanding is that the AD has more of a supervisory role here, but I am not in this business, I just remember what I read.

      Baldwin had a modern reproduction which has safety features added that the originals did not have.

      >>how likely is it to set off the sixth cartridge at half wiener anyway
      dunno, never tried it. But according to the old timers who shot those guns a lot like Ed McGivern and Elmer Keith, the half-wiener and "safety" notches in an original Colt SAA design is physically weak and easily broken and therefore not to be trusted.

        Example of Colt SAA hammers. The one on the left is new and intact. The one on the right has the tip of the half-wiener notch broken off. The leftmost notch is the sear surface for firing the gun. The middle notch is half-wiener, the one at the farthest right is the "safety" notch.

        Again, the discussion about the safety are irrelevant. The scene was for him to point the gun directly at the camera (the girl sitting directly behind it) and shoot. He would have shot her anyways.

          All the rest is addressing anon's question regarding how likely a safety notch failure is, which has nothing at all do do with Baldwin.

      Op thinks it's 1876, and it's unsafe to load the 6th round.
      No one's using a SAA/replica as a carry gun, so this is beyond fricking moronic.

    That's called a cowboy load. Many anons here are probably very accustomed to cowboy loads both on and off the range.

    Couldn't you just load 6 and then de-wiener to rest the firing pin nose between chambers? IIRC the half-wiener notch is only there to prevent the hammer from completely falling if the sear slips due to rough handling or drops while the hammer is fully wienered.

    The cowboy load was always fud shit to begin with. Even in the time period gunfighters carried with a full cylinder and the hammer in a safety notch. Cowboy load is like the old west version of carrying a semiautomatic with an empty chamber - you cuck yourself for no reason other than autistic distrust of your weapon.

      muzzle loaders have a notch to put the hammer down onto to keep it off the percussion caps
      cartridge conversion guns do not have this feature generally, and only some cartridge guns had it
