I'd start with a small one and work my way up.

Entry level M18 57MM Recoilless Rifle.

Would you consider 73mm SPG-9, little brother of main gun armament of the old BMP-1 and BMD-1 personnel carriers, to be similar startup equipment?

Well, it is a single shot so, it would be suitable for use by a beginner. I'm just a little concerned about the weight. If the shooter can shoulder fire it without too much difficulty, ok. The bulkyness however, may cause problems for the shooter at a hunter safety course or DCM Shoot. Even the smaller 57MM is out of the question for use at a CCW class.
