I'm on the private range with a petite young lady. She has passed the CHL class, so wants to try various handguns before she buys, while waiting for license to come in.
Guy shows up and has been given permisson to shoot at the range. Ok-quick review of the rules, and range regs and I go back to the lady. I'm standing behind and to the right of student when a Glock comes skittering down the table toward us. I grab the students revolver with my right hand thumbing the cyl open and the same time my left goes around her and picks her up and back.
I safely put the revolver away and the guys says "oops, I slipped, I used Armor All on my Glock". I retrieve his firearm, drop mag an d make safe, he is not to shoot that gun again until Armor All removed. He says he has a J frame. I ask student if she was comfortable with that, she nodded yes. I wash my hands and proceed with the student...again I grab the students gun and move her back as before, as the j frame is now downrange with the hammer back( practicing quickdraw he says). I grab a cell phone call my friend/owner of range to get down her stat! . I take away this guys guns,take the Glock apart, open cyl of j frame and use a cable tie to make sure this gun is safe. Owner shows up, takes the guns away, call the guys dad and said he can come and pick up the guns. Dad later agreed with actions of us all. Son is too anal retentive, mall ninja minded--agreed with us until son proves responsible he is not to handle firearms until extensive education is complete, first time I can recall telling a student they may notattend a CHL class.
We , including his dad called other instuctors and advised no to give CHL instruction. Dad has kept guns, son flunked two firearm safety classes with his attitude. Delusional perhaps, dad is getting the boy treatment.
