Ask him to demonstrate proficiency with one hand. If he can aim, shoot and re-cock 5 rounds in the allotted time using only one hand let him use it on the test.
Do the rules specify you can only use one hand? I doubt that very much. Many shooters cock their SA revolvers with their off hand as do many DA revolver shooters. I along with everyone in my class used a two hand hold and probably everyone does, too, so why would you exempt this weapon from two handed use? I wouldn't want to be on the firing line with someone doing a Chuck Conners routine with their firearm.
I'm just trying to help. If an instructor is empowered to disallow a lever action pistol why can't he impose his own proficiency test too?
