No they didn't... I'll give you if the gun was dropped, there is a slight possibility. But there is NO EVIDENCE that that happened...

The "gun modification" angle is BS and since Baldwin was screwing around with the gun (he admitted to practicing has "cross draw"), he most likely pulled back the hammer part way and dropped the hammer on the primer...

Guns just don't "go off" unless something stupid is being done with them...
