I recommend a single shot. I have been taking my 6 and 8 year old grandsons to the range. I have two Cooey 39 rifles for them to use, one is cut to 12” lop.
I control the ammunition by dispensing one round at a time. The 6 yo is a maniac and would be dangerous if given a repeater.
A Savage Rascal is definitely an easier rifle to use- it has a short lop, no awkward cocking of the bolt, and much better trigger.
