After my recent revelation about the 20ga I've rekindled my interest in a 28ga shotgun. I've handled a new 870 28ga, but it seemed too beefy for what I would want in a small-gauge gun. Besides, my collection is nothing of not varied, and I've got an 870 already.
What else (new or used) would be worth looking at? I want to keep the price down, as this is only intended to be a "fun" piece. I'd like to keep the price at an absolute max of $1000, and preferably about 1/2 of that. O/U, pumps, autos... any of them would be fine.
The qualities I'm looking for are:
1) Good build quality
2) Lightweight
3) Properly proportioned for the gauge
4) Aesthetically pleasing
Heck, add in smart and funny and you've got a good list for a wife!
