You're both wrong. The gun had been previously fired with a squib where the primer had pushed the bullet into the barrel ( the primer was supposed to have been removed). It was later fired with a blank that propelled the squib round into Lee.

This is why my parents taught me to never point a gun at someone.

So Alec Baldwin killed a broad.

Ok, someone help me out here. With all of the technology and special effects at Hollywood’s disposal, why are real guns, capable of firing any sort of projectile still being used?

Alec Baldwin’s wife is the GOAT at pretending to be Spanish with the fake accent and everything

Chico did it on his own accord. Self made man, so to say.

Baldwin ignored the advice Connery gave him years ago.

Well, that's unfortunate.

Reminds me of John Eric Hexum. Such a sad loss at the age of 26.
On October 12, 1984, the cast and crew of Cover Up were filming the seventh episode of the series, "Golden Opportunity," on Stage 17 of the 20th Century Fox lot. One of the scenes filmed that day called for Hexum's character to load bullets into a .44 Magnum handgun, so he was provided with a functional gun and blanks. When the scene did not play as the director wanted it to in the master shot, there was a delay in filming. Hexum became restless and impatient during the delay and began playing around to lighten the mood. He had unloaded all but one (blank) round, spun it, and—simulating Russian roulette—he put the revolver to his right temple and pulled the trigger,[6] apparently unaware of the danger.
Blanks use paper or plastic wadding to seal gunpowder into the cartridge, and this wadding is propelled from the barrel of the gun with enough force to cause injury if the weapon is fired within a few feet of the body, particularly a vulnerable spot, such as the temple or the eye. At a close enough range, the effect of the powder gases is a small explosion, so although the paper wadding in the blank that Hexum discharged did not penetrate his skull, there was enough blunt force trauma to shatter a quarter-sized piece of his skull and propel the pieces into his brain, causing massive hemorrhaging.[1][7]
Hexum was rushed to Beverly Hills Medical Center, where he underwent five hours of surgery to repair his wounds.[7] On October 18, aged 26, six days after the accident, Hexum was declared brain-dead.

A lot of people in BR knew Halyna, as she did a film here in 2018. She was good people. This show was prob a big deal for her too. Bummer.

Yea the force of super heated gas of a blank round and the glue wad within a few feet of a gun can still kill you.
