That's from a report I am not sure about its accuracy. I just can't fathom that the armorer goes through the process of safeing that gun then sets them in a tray for anyone to fart around with. Completely out of their watchful eye and direct supervision.

Yeah...I was just joking.

I think it was a series of gaps in safety checks, and Baldwin making the final lapse in it all by pointing a gun he thoughts wasn't loaded and for whatever reason pretending to fire it, not expecting it to go off.

I don't buy it misfiring as he unholstered it. When that happens the barrel is pointed down....for it to fire across a room would take it being well clear of the holder, and leveled.

I'll shit sideways if there isn't some government safety regs on it. Firearms are obviously dangerous as ****, and they're being used, essentially in industry on a jobsite with a lot of people.

The local coop has extensive OSHA involvement. Now grain bins are pretty dangerous, but they're not ostensibly designed to take life LOL.

Yep how I feel too.

As for the young armorer, who here on the first job that carried a responsibility didn't feel apprehension about doing the job correctly? I really take nothing about those comments but honesty.

Colt 45 Walker
Yes, the Dragoon was a 44. My 1851 Navy was a 36. The part I read about what it was is buried in the long post "A vintage Colt Dragoon from the 1800s is seen. The fatal gun was a Colt, but the model and caliber are sill unclear".

She got the gig because she was cheap. More experienced armorers passed on the job because of the film's low budget.

The outlaw Josey Waled favored a walker Colt also.



So did Augustus McCrae



So did Kim Darby

That actually is an excellent point.

They might have used a Walker in True Grit but, Duke/Rooster clearly states, “By God, girl that’s a Colt’s Dragoon!”

Depends on where he was in the unholstering process. All that hammer has to do is strike the cap just hard enough to ingnite. If your thumb slips off the hammer when you pull it back, that may be enough. Could the hammer been caught on something when he unholstered? The thing that bothers me is that this or maybe other weapons misfired. I always was very careful to make sure each chamber on the cylinder had grease over it. If this was a percussion pistol there could have been a chain fire. When I looked for a video about loading a percussion pistol, I noticed some of the videos did not show greasing each chamber. I don't know if that's something new, but every cap and ball shooter I've ever known does.

The Duke would be wrong.
That's clearly a Walker she is holding.

I wouldn’t say he is wrong so much as he read the lines he was given. It wouldn’t be the first time Hollywood has used the wrong prop (intentionally or not).
