How has no famous detective novel been written on this premise yet?

i think the idea that nobody checked the gun or other basic safety stuff was done might be unrealistic lol
like live firing exercises in the military (not US) is always a stressful event for the officers/NCOs in charge for fear of something like this happening and a lot of emphasis would be put on reminders to check your weapon and stuff
i recall when a fellow newstrag soldier misplaced his rifle's firing pin we had to literally touch grass to find it
good times

i think soldiers are the same everywhere, more brawn than brains used most of the time
in my case we're
forcedconscripted so there's even less motivation compared to a volunteer or paid individualJump in the discussion.

That's why it would be such a good detective story. You'd have the prop guys up as the main suspect but it also would be obvious that they would be suspect so you'd have to look at people who might want to frame them. How it was actually managed, all that. Frick I wish I could write stories.

He looks like a cute twink in the pic but this dude would have been a huge star that accidentally an Hero'd with a blank on a tv set. I used to watch his show voyagers when I was a wee wizling. He was charismatic as heck.

Anyone βmember the description of his dong during the metoo stuff? That thing sounded like he hit it with a sledgehammer and paid a trucker for every tire that ran over it.
Imagine sucking that for a minor roll in some shitty movie

Iirc, the reason why they had real bullets on set was because they decided to be cheap and make their own dummies and blanks. The story I remember it as is that when they made the dummy bullets, they removed the propellant but they didnβt remove the primer, so when they put in the newly made dummies for some reason or another, someone pressed the trigger which ignited the primer in the cartridge. While the primer is not enough to propel a bullet, it is enough to move it from the chamber into the barrel where the rifling keeps it in place. So when they removed the dummies, without noticing that the bullet for one the cartridges is missing, and added the blanks, the gun basically had all the components for a loaded gun in place like that account said.

cheaping out on bullets sounds darwinian
plastic blanks should be cheap right? they still bang with the flash and all

You usually by them in bulk, so they probably thought you could get one pack of normal bullets and make them half half dummies and blanks or buy one pack each of dummies and blanks for twice the price. Probably thought they could save that extra 5-10 dollars for something important.

The official story is BS. Guns don't work like that. It was loaded with real ammo.
