When my friend goes to the range, he looks at all the lanes and if he sees someone who looks like they're new (eg. someone's coaching them or they seem uncertain), he'll go over to them, say something nice/encouraging and hand them a couple boxes of ammo (if he's got the caliber on-hand).
Since we first saw it, my other buddy and I have started doing the same. Great way to start conversations -- they finish running through their ammo and almost always come to us to say thanks and ask for tips or whatever. We usually just say "remember how you felt today, and next time you see someone in a similar spot, pay it forward."
