Of course that would only be possible if the armorer was not the only one with either the key, or the combination to the safe. Some have said that Baldwin insisted upon having access to the safe. Does anyone know for sure if that is true or not? Did someone else have access?

I've also heard that the armorer was not even on the set yet at the time this incident occurred. That the armorer did not clear the gun and hand it to the assistant director, because she had not yet arrived on set. Anyone know for sure?
I believe that she was on set but not in the church when the impromptu rehearsal took place in which the tragedy occurred. She might have still been at lunch…not sure.

No one leaves a set for lunch but you probably already knew that.
