Hunting wild boar is a blast.  tough, fast, potentially dangerous, and tasty.

I've got 3-4 rifles that are near perfect, but this might be the best.  

Christmas is coming I asked Sant for this or a small Coleman .5 liter thermos.  Hoping!

I have never hunted Hogs, I would LOVE to But...
Anyway.
I would think an AR in .458 SOCOM Or 450 Bushmaster.
 
I personally would take my Marlin 1895 45/70 CB.

I guess it comes down to personal taste. I was going to suggest Serengeti Rifle, but they sold out to Kilimanjaro, a few years ago.

Looks like they still build good rifles though, check out Kilimanjaro Mannlicher Rifle In 9.3x62 Mauser.

9.3x62

Robert looks like my 9,3x62 manlicher style CZ 550 with single set triggers.  Yep, that is a fine rifle, like one of my others.

But a double 9x57Jrs is cool.

nice thermos for a kid. 

 I'd caution him not to take it to school.  our district has given 3 day suspensions and permanent record notation to kids for less real toys!  Stupid, yep.  but the kids suffer!

Very nice rifle bear. I'm thinking I would put it at the top of your list so Santa sees it first. 

If not that a Thermos wouldn't be bad either. 

Ya never know.

I have always considered myself to be quite the bullshitter, But ocasionally it is nice to sit back and listen to a true professional......So, Carry on.
