RCP, the rule at one local range where I live is not just no handling firearms, but no handling firearms OR ANY benched equipment during a target change. In fact, no one is allowed to stop at a bench, but merely to pass through to go travel out to the target array. It makes people much more comfortable when they turn around and heading back towards the benches, see no one stopped there fiddling around with anything, firearm or not. At the moment he insisted that you were handling a firearm and you say you weren't, you were at the bench ahead of the line. That alone makes people tense.
