On another subject. If they were going for a sequence where a loaded pistol is fired at the audience then the bullets in the weapon would have to appear real to the audience. Especially if a real close up was involved.
Having a loaded gun is never the problem. I have loaded guns at the ready all the time. Stuff only starts to hit the fan when I put my booger finger on the bang bang switch and aim the weapon at another object/individual. A loaded gun is no more dangerous than a car with a tankful of gas. Neither item is an issue till we become actionable with the inanimate object.
