My thought exactly...... but in a 20 gage. Then make them watch The Clancy/ Jack Ryan film where the IRA attacks his cliff house and his wife gets the shotgun!



Another nice little gun is the Mossberg 510 youth model in 20 gage...... 18" 3+1

Take them too the range................. .22lr K-frame. My wife's family is from England .......... guns in the house :O.......... my wife now has three; a 2" 10, a 4" 15 and a M&P 22C.


Edit: Remember the KISS principle
If you/ they go a revolver route....and store unloaded..... think about a Safariland speedloader or three ........ just push it into the cylinder...
