As a non American, I can promise you that me trying to check if a gun is loaded is gonna be a he'll of a lot more dangerous than trusting the guy who is *employed to check if the gun is loaded*.

This was a 6 shooter.  It was suppose to have zero bullets in it.  Not even blanks were to be loaded.  You can literally look at the back of the cylinder and see if a bullet is present or not.  Like  maybe 2 seconds to do.  Spin it and look again.  This is the LEAST he could of done to ensure safety.
