Weapon Release Form
Last Updated:
This form contains the rules, regulations, and procedures on prop weapon usage at CalArts and on location. There have been issues with prop weapon usage at CalArts and on location in the past. If not handled correctly, prop weapons may be misunderstood to be real and treated as such by the public and the police, leading to very serious safety and legal issues. Be aware that many police departments will assume a weapon is real and treat as such without asking questions first.
