Don’t overlook the Savage and Mossberg O/Us for a pretty nice mid-range shotgun. My buddy shoots a Savage, pretty nice gun for $600 or so. The Mossberg Gold Reserve is getting good reviews at $1,000 or less but I have no idea how they fit. You just have to go pick up one and see how it fits you.

CZ makes a decent sub $1k gun. Otherwise keep your eye on the classifieds.

Unless you're recoil sensitive, it ain't the mule kicker you make it out to be. For reference, the Stevens and the Tristar are both also 7lb guns. I guess you only shoot 10lb Purdeys and Kreighoffs though, and a 3.5" Benelli is a piece of crap because it thumps a little right? LOL
Shouldn’t have to add crap to a gun out of the box to make it tolerable to shoot.

He owned one for 4 years. He probably has a good idea....I've seen the bruises after shooting light dove loads....

I guess I am “recoil sensitive!”
…and get in a hurry and hold shotgun a little low to the arm when a big group comes thru.
Shot fine. Kicks like mule.

I cant wait to show my wife who shot a 20ga yildiz for years and never managed to do that the picture. And in my small knowledge of shotguns, and shooting 2-3 flats a month till this year. A poor mount is the reason for that bruise and even a $20,000.00 properly fitted gun would have done the same when you mount on your arm and not in the pocket.
The Indian and not the arrow comes to mind

If you have an outfit that handles a lot of used guns, I would go fondle some Browning Citori's & Ruger red labels, along with any other's they have in that price window...like stated, the key is to find what fits you & that will take a lot of the kick out.
I'm a big beretta fan, but the 686 / 687 family field guns knock the snot out of 'me'...their sporting guns rock, but not in your budget.
Just consider the model & price window (even if a little high @ retail)...once you find something that's gonna work, then shop & compare pricing of the same rigs. Don't be fooled, a $900 gun online could be asking $1200 on the shelf. Look, fondle, then buy.
