Maybe such ignorance fuels their politics too.

Many do have consultants. You'd be surprised what actors
can't do correctly when mimicking reality, so ex (fill in the blank) decrying gun wherewithal is hired for an exorbitant fee to make actor A look less inept when handling a fake weapon.
But anyway, technicalities about how to shoot a weapon isn't my point. My point is the message portrayed, which IMO is disingenuous on the part of Hollywood.
