The basic rule on ANY movie set anywhere is : NO real guns and NO live ammo. Period full stop! 2nd Amendment does NOT apply. Simple !
AS a producer, he should be charged with negligence since he was aware that real guns and live ammo was on set for days. The buck stops with the producer....!
Now, as an actor, he MUST rely on the armorer to provide safe gun. The fact that he pulled the trigger or NOT is immaterial. As an actor he is NOT responsible. When a weapon is on set, it is the armorer who is "the boss" during that time, same as when "pyro" is used, it is the pyrotechnic or when a stunt is performed, it is the stunt coordinator.
Obviously the Arizona hillbillies do NOT have a clue how a proper set is to be run. He should be charged with a criminal negligence, NOT a manslaughter
