Which is both sad and confusing as he pulled it out on set with the intention to pull the trigger for the scene.

It wasn't even an actual scene being filmed, It was blocking (working out the details of an actor’s moves in relation to the camera) where non-functioning props like cardboard are usually used. The scene script in question also didn't even have him pointing the gun. He was supposed to only draw the gun out partially.

So he just whipped it out for fun? This just gets worse as more details emerge
