So I have an acquittance that is still in his early 20's and seems interested in firearm's and I thought it would be nice to invite him out to the range.
However when he was younger he did something stupid and has a felony on his record that prohibits him from owning firearms. He did not serve any jail time just probation but it will still be a number of years before he can apply to have his record expunged.
He is a nice hardworking young man and I am not worried about him doing anything unsafe or shady and I do trust him, but I am not sure if it is legal to bring a prohibited person shooting or allow him to handle my guns.
I am not talking about loaning him guns I would not do that, I am talking about bringing him with me to go shooting and letting try it out, the guns would be under my supervision and not be left with him alone.
Is this legal? Are there any specific law or rules I should be aware of if I do take him? This is unknow territory for me, I tend not to know many prohibited people thus I have never had to deal with something like this before.
