I was just recently in the same position as you with my almost 10 year old son, and I started out "convinced" I wanted a break barrel single shot for safety reasons. Ultimately I finally went with the youth model of the Maverick 88. However, I left the dowel rod in it, so a maximum of two shells can be loaded, but, he knows he can load one shell and one shell only. We had a long talk about why he can only do one (making it a single shot), and how that is part of the responsibility of being able to shoot. I am glad I did as I was not really happy with the quality of most of the single shot youth models out there, and this one can grow with him.
