Applied external energy....IE: stuck with any object, say a rock or the forehead of a liberal..

I just saw an old interview [Dec?] with Alex Baldwin where he said "I let go of the hammer and it just went off". That would suggest that the sear didn't hold the hammer in place or he didn't cock the pistol enough to engage the sear.
Still sounds like bullshyt to me.
