I have not read this entire thread but since your son KNEW it was not loaded I direct you to another thread from a member here.

A few months ago at the range I had a guy come out to shoot with his wife (a novice at best) and his young son (seemed to be his first time with a hand gun). This guy was so worried about his sons actions that he never watched his wife. The first time she pointed the gun at me I told her "keep that down range", second time "Don't Point that gun at me" Each time he corrected her and reminded her of the safety rules. The Third time I said it loud enough to make a point "I said keep the gun down range and not at me." i think it embarrassed him that I had said it loud enough half of the range could hear because they packed up and left.

A gun is never unloaded but i check every gun to make sure it is unloaded; that is unless it is in my house, then i check to verify it is still loaded.
