It's funny that you mention that. I wanted them to go this past weekend 'cause my brother's birthday was last week and I've been thinking about getting him a gun. Since they are inseparable, I wanted her to go in the hope she'd really enjoy it and so I could get a good idea of what would be a good choice.
I'm thinking about getting him(them) a Remington 870 Express Super Magnum (on firing a 3" Magnum slug, he emitted a very loud WHOOOOOHOOOO!, so I figured the ability to shoot 3 1/2"ers might satisfy this big, recoil-INsensitive brother of mine). The next best choices would be a Marlin lever action in 45/70 or a Savage 10FP in .308 or 30-06. Since I don't have anything like the Marlin, maybe that's the way I should go
. But if I get the shotgun, they could shoot skeet without me tagging along or borrowing my guns. Oh, decisions, decisions, decisions...
BTW, the Garand will be mine one day...
