minus-squareuberkalden@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up11·1 year agoCan a layman even check that? The gun was supposed to be loaded. Just loaded with a blank
minus-squaremnemonicmonkeys@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoYes. Blanks don’t have a bullet in the cartridge. It’s just crimped on the end
minus-squareuberkalden@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 year agoSo he needs to take the bullet out, inspect and reload? Is there additional risk making an actor do that? Honestly asking
minus-squaresoupspoon@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·1 year agoNot sure how there would be any additional risk as long as the actor keeps their finger off the trigger until they’re ready to shoot
