Would not allowing someone to shoot your firearm fall under the accepted definitions of "loan"? We typically think of a loan as being when the other person removes the widget from our presence, but it isn't really limited to that.
Suppose two gearheads meet up at a friend's garage, and want to tinker with their cars. One needs a 7/16" socket, the other has a socket set in his trunk.
"Hey, Joe, lemme use your 7/16 socket for a few minutes."
"Sure, no problem."
Both are standing there while the "transfer" of the socket takes place and at all times until the socket is transferred back to the owner. Isn't that in fact a "loan"?
