Pumpkin, I also have been looking at their blackpowder doubles, they even have it as a mix. But I wouldn't buy their doubles for 'normal' ammo. Baikal is far less expensive and on the other side: have a look at Suhl, Merkel, etc. or the english ones. I think even Tika has such a thing with adjustable barrels.
Talking about doubles that aren't smoothbores is talking about a complete different world (and also talking about a complete different amount of money...)

tlo, you may not need to get a small caliber gun for your daughter. Did you see the Trail Boss recipe that OV1 found.

Also, beware of the .410 in the Wizard. In order to keep production costs low and keep the fore stock interchangeable with the barrel, they use the same barrel blanks for all caliber/gauge options. When I bought the NEF break-open shotguns for my kids to learn with, the .410 was very heavy and they couldn't handle it. The 20 gauge was so much lighter, it knocked them on their buts. I sold the 20 and cut the barrel down on the .410 so it was light enough for them to handle. The barrel had so much thickness left on it, I had no issues drilling and tapping it for a scope mount.
If you are looking for a good quality AR at a low price, try Palmetto Armory. They have complete uppers on sale this Christmas for $380. They also sell their lower receivers for $49 on occasions. Lowers are easy to build and you save some serious cash.

Have you considered a new scope in return for your thoughtfulness of buying a .270 for your wife? |
They gave me what I ordered within the estimated timeframe so no complaints. I used the Palmetto State Armory Coupon & bought few extra rounds.
