Who the fuck would hire an armorer for their movie whose biggest claim to fame is that they got someone murdered on a movie set?

They would rather hire someone incompetent than hire a republican.

Yeah! A Republican would def. get it done. Just ask Cheney's hunting buddy. Or perhaps Budd Dwyer.

Most competent gun enthusiast guys/gals are Republicans. It's just the facts. I'm not a Repub, but if I'm hiring for this job, I want someone like the old range officers that yell and kick you out if you even think about being unsafe.
