If arm strength is an issue, is he going to have the grip strength to pull the trigger on a revolver? I'd suggest a 10/22 or equivalent. It's not what the SEALS use, but it's what he can handle.

Like others have said, bench shooting a 12ga is far from ideal, for anyone. I wish you luck in getting him to try anything after that.
