He's on a movie set and was told the gun was safe. There was absolutely no reason for the prop master to put a live round in the gun then tell the director it's safe.

gun safety rule #1 is check yourself no matter what you're told. the person telling him it's fine is at fault, and he's at fault. under correct conditions everyone who is handed a gun inspects & tests it themselves before using it

you can't put all the fault on one person but you can't rid anyone of fault completely either. everyone involved with getting him the gun, and him, are at fault because there should have been plenty of safety checks along the way including when he had it in his hands

the fact there was a walkout over poor conditions & poor safety kinda adds to the fact that everyone involved was being unsafe b/c the people who cared enough about safety already left
