Someone earlier in this thread claimed there were blanks in the gun not real bullets. Now we're hearing it they were the real thing. Which is it?
There's two things at play here:
1 - Why were real bullets loaded into a gun that was being used on a movie set?
2) Did Baldwin know the gun was loaded - or when he heard "cold gun" did he think that mean it had no bullets of any kind? Because even if they were blanks, they could still hurt someone if fired at close range. If he thought it was loaded with blanks, then it still raises the question why would you pull the trigger during a rehearsal and fire blanks at someone?
