Friendly advice would be appreciated. Trying to keep it under $400....Below $300 would be great. I will let her read the comments.

A 12-gauge slug load would knock her on her butt if she isn't careful.
But, if she really wants one, buy a reasonably priced used 12-gauge, and shorten the stock. Be sure to put a large recoil pad on it.

Pretty hard to beat a Remington 870 Express youth model 20 gauge for 299.99 at Walmart. One with a few modifications like a magazine extension sleeps by the side of my bed.

I think Mossberg makes a Model 500 12 bore with a “youth” size stock.
Hogue makes a rubber stock and forend for the Rem 870 that has a length of pull of 12”. Factory LOP is something like 13 5/8” so that’s pretty short.
You could have any competent gunsmith measure your wife for the proper length of pull and shorten just about any wooden buttstock so that is will fit her.
The length of one’s arms determines the proper buttstock length of pull. Mine measures 12.5”. Its frustrating how difficult it is to handle a long arm with an improper length of pull.

Sounds good....Browsing dealers hasn’t helped...should have thought of going straight to the manufacturers. $315 is reasonable.

Mossberg sounds like the right fit.

Maybe the first thing is to take the wife to check various youth models, shotgun or center fire just to test fit a stock length she’s comfortable with, measure that length of pull before committing $.

I’m the same size and I am happy with a 20 gauge for deer hunting. I have a Mossburg 510 youth and love it.
