I'd think - yup, it really IS cool to the touch or maybe nope, that's pretty warm, actually. And then I'd continue with the scene using the prop given to me.

Because I'm not a gun person, don't know the rules and etiquette of gun handling, and aren't interested in learning about real guns at all. I shouldn't have to care, if I'm just playing a makebelieve role with what I am told is a prop for a make-believe scene in a movie that isn't a documentary.
You have a responsibility to learn about guns from someone with competent knowledge on them, otherwise you don't pick them up.

If you are handed a firearm and told it is loaded with blanks, you personally have to check it right then and there. If you pull the trigger and it harms someone, YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE.
