870 Express

I recommend a Remington 870 Express either the magnum or super magnum. Both are extremely affordable, easy to clean and operate. Also the magnum can handle 3 inch heavy loads and the Super Mag can shoot 3 1/2 inch shells. I own each and am perfectly content with the performance and price.

I like my 870... hard to beat for the price. If you don't get ducks and geese, it won't be the shotgun's fault. They look good, shoot good and last a lifetime. I actually shoot 2 3/4 shells most of the time at ducks and use 3 inchers for geese and long ducks (the third round in the magazine). The 3 1/2 inchers kick too much for my liking. No goose is worth that recoil to me. If you get an expensive auto like a Benelli, it reduces the recoil a lot but that costs a lot more.

If you go with a pump the Rem 870 is hard to beat especialy for the price. if you go with a semi auto the Rem. 11-87 is also very affordable

I have had a 870 for years and have had only one problem with it, easy fix. I recently bought a M887 and I love it. It is a bit lighter has Hi-Vis sights and a polymer coating over the metal that seems tough as heck with a synthetic stock. I bought mine in black for $339, but I will put camo skinz over it and save the extra $$$. A buddy has a Benneli Nova and I compared the two (887 and Nova) It was a tight comp. but the 887 just felt/fit me better but both are great and won't break the bank.

870 express super mag or benelli nova are my choices. A good automatic will run you double that price.

I'd go buy a used pump, 12 ga. If you sniff around I would bet that you can be killing ducks for under $150. She might be ugly, but she'll be death on ducks. I wouldn't pay for a camo stock. I've been hunting for over 40 years without one and can't say as my stock has cost me one duck or goose.

If you feel that you absolutely must have a camo stock and don't want to spend the money for it from the factory, you can always use spray-paint. A trip to your local Walmart will likely reveal inexpensive camo color paint and you can just throw some wavy lines or dots on it to your own taste after practicing on some cardboard.
You can also use a mesh laundry bag, masking tape, vaseline, or leaves and grass to make crazy patterns. Make sure you remember to put some tape over your serial number and anything else you don't want to paint over.

Looks like I'm going into my Benelli era. Gonna get a 20 gauge Nova in a few days. This is good enough for Ducks Over Decoys. It should be dynamite for upland. If I really love it, I will purchase a 12 gauge to keep it company.
