I was channel surfing this afternoon and happened onto "Blue Steel," already well along. The bad guy, Ron Silver, was loading a Smith 29 with flat tipped lead rounds. Then there was a closeup of the cylinder, and the primers were very clearly already fired.
This may not be the worst of all time in terms of movie gun gaffes, but it is certainly a contender.
Later, Jamie Lee Curtis takes a revolver from a fellow officer, checks the cylinder, and it appears to have unfired primers, so they did not do it consistently.
Do you have favorite gun gaffes in movies and TV? There are many to pick from.
