Maybe thin land, thin land is more appropriate as DOB doom approaches.Quote:

It made the news here, too.

I have always seen the NZ cops as a kindlier cut above the rest from their Docos.
None of that blazing away past your partner & into an innocent member of the public as happened in the US.
Chances are they seem so nice they wouldn't know how to use their guns, or ask the Perp to hold it while they get out the Instruction Book.
Just my observation. [bigrolf]
Point a gun at and kill someone when not wanting to kill some one is clearly very very distressing. I feel sorry for the family and Mr Baldwin yet I find it odd.
Basic common sense is to check if a fire arm is safe. A real gun or prop looks the same. Just because something is used as a prop doesn't mean it is not real.
Not meaning to toss a brick yet I feel it is gross negligence at best and more likely manslaughter.
Hope this one is not CA material. Sorry if so. Feel free to delete if it is out of bounds. [bighmmm]

Whats the first thing one is taught when handed a weapon?
*********1. Remove the Mag.
2.Cock it while the barrel is facing the ground or into free space.
3. Operate the cocking mechanism a couple of times & see if any ammo is ejected.
4.Visually inspect the workings.
If it is a Revolver inspect the rotating MAG. for rounds.
Should be a piece of cake for a qualified Armourer without thinking too much about it.
And apparently the standard MO (sorry) on a film shoot (sorry again) is that the weapon is deliberately not aimed at anyone, ever, when it's fired during filming.Quote:
