what about blank-firing firearms within use of film?
>>35183859

Yes, and obviously there have been plenty of California-produced films with the same.

They get special commercial licenses.

>today /k/ teaches OP that movies are allowed to use blank-firing guns.

Also money solves a lot of problems.

The M136 firing in the matrix was NOT firing blanks. It did indeed cycle spent cartridges, but did not fire anything, even blanks. They fed reloading brass through the electrical cyclic system.

Prop guns are actually latex casts.

They're actually solid rubber, which boggles my mind.

I'll take your word for it, I only know this from looking a sites that sell movie props and being eternally disappointed that they are all rubber guns always.. Although I read IMA supplied a thousand or so full autos for private ryan.

It was no where near that number, more like 100, and I cannot 100% confirm this, but I've heard most of the weapons on set were not capable of clambering a live round. However there were fully functional MG34/MG42s and MP40s on set.

Resin molds. There is a reason for this. Let's say the hero is issued with a revolver. Special grips and so on. The original may well have been hand built from a real gun, on which details have been added to make a unique looking weapon. That gun is now going to be used in dozens of scenes, many of which are going to be used by standins. The gun will be thrown around, dropped to the floor on purpose and by accident. If it breaks or vanishes between takes, all hell is loose because of an hour of scenes already made. So once the original is ready there are a number of copies made and the original is put in the safe in case more copies need to be made.

movie studios usually get a waiver and are allowed to have them for shooting movies and such.
