change this line

local owner = ent.Getowning_ent and ent:Getowning_ent() or Player(ent.SID or 0)

to

local owner = ent :GetOwner()

The problem is not in this part of code. Something overrode Player global variable with a table.

You need to find why this happened.

If after the fix Player won't work, try Entity(ent.SID or 0), maybe it's a EntityIndex not UserID.

Entity:GetOwner (as Doyousketch2 suggested) won't help you because it's used for parenting not ownability.
