The last check should NEVER BE ANYBODY BUT THE ARMORER. The ONLY CHECK should be the armorer.

Exactly one person in the chain of custody.

This is how Hollywood works. Doing your dumb shit would get you fired and stripped of your union membership at best

Learn how things work in the adult world before talking with authority about something you have zero knowledge of. Your dumbass redneck “gun safety” doesn’t work and will never work for guns that need to be handled on a film set.

What dumb shit? Making sure the gun they're holding isn't actually loaded? Literally everyone (except hollywood apparantly) agrees on the basics of gun safety because they DO work. If he'd done that this woman would be alive. Clearly hollywood's practice's aren't idiot proof.

If the actor does anything with the gun that isn’t in the script and performed while the camera is rolling, the entire set is cleared and the weapons need to be recertified before the set is called safe again.

Literally everyone in Hollywood and the firearms industry agrees these are the basics of gun safety on a live set. But dumbasses who took a gun safety class from redneck Joe at the Y think they know what’s best in every situation.

Better they have to shut the set down than someone end up dead. Like what actually happened.
