Youth Shotgun Recoil Reducer/Lgth of Pull Solution

Got a little girl 9 years old and I would like to fit her into a 20 ga youth single shot SPR 100. It was my son's gun, he is shooting 12 ga now. Was thinking about something below, recoil reducer, and I can adjust the length of pull as she grows. And I guess if I spend a lot of money on something nice, I can take it off and put it on her next gun. She just now has the strength to hold up that single shot 20 ga. I was thinking something like the link below, not sure if that is good for a youth gun or not. Any thoughts appreciated, or links to products I should conceder. Thx

    I put a mercury filled tube I bought from Brownells in a Mauser action 45-70 that I built last year. I'm amazed at what it does, works like a champ. They are made in different sizes and weights, it may be an option for you. www.Brownells.com
    For what it's worth.

    9 is kinda young.
    shooting to 9 year olds is more of a thrill, not a lesson in accuracy. i find at that age benching guns is more fun for them, not standing a long time with a cinder block intheir hands.
    the spr is the problem. buy a good gun and give her one in 410 or 28ga.
    gizmos run costs up and only leave you with a spr single shot in the end.[xx(]
    pay the bucks, buy a semi auto that absorbs the recoil in 410 or 28 and cut the stock down/ put a kick-ezz pad on and have fun.[^]
