Almost without doubt. This is why many ranges in Southern California won't rent a gun to a person who's alone.
Wow. Times have changed. There used to be an indoor range in Monrovia called The Firing Line which would rent guns to anybody old enough - alone or not. I used to shoot there. But that was a long time ago.
Usually they won't rent to you if you are alone unless you have your own gun with you, are a member/well known to them, or some exception along those lines. There was an incident just like this at Champion Firearms in College Station within the past year or so. Man went in, rented a pistol, and killed himself with it on the range.
