Good for you to start your daughter off shooting at that age. In my opinion I would get a 28 ga. There are more shell options and even though the shells cost as much I think she will do better becasue of the added lead and not become discouraged by missing. Also if you reload, and if you are going to be shooting a lot, you can make some low velocity (low pressure) reloads that she wouldn't mind shooting longer.
As far as reducing weight in the stock,if it is a little under 6 lbs. to 6 lbs. 4 ozs. I would leave it alone. You start reducing weight you start to incresse felt recoil.
Good luck and let us know how you make out.
Also remember that safety, no matter how old you are is the most important thing in gun handling.
