No doubt about it. If he is healthy enough to go out and do some shooting it will erase any doubts or questions about which platform, caliber or style he likes/handles the best. He may even decide he likes a handgun best.

While You can make suggestions, my suggestions it to take him out shopping and maybe shooting. In today's market, if you have a decent range near by that rents firearms, you might let him see how he likes a few of the different styles of long guns that are out there. He may go for the lever since it is like the Red Ryder, but he might find a semi-auto that he really likes also.
And it is an excuse to go out and spend some time at a range and some time with your dad. That makes it a win-win to me.

I would probably be steering him towards a pump shotgun loaded with buck shot.
