I agree with all replies. All suggestions are good. Another possibility would be to find an older I/O of good quality with a reduced price. Example: You can find quite a few Belgium Browning Lightning Trap guns for about $1000-1,400. These are of very high quality as they were still made in Belgium, Germany. The trap grade is what you want as it will ususally have 28" barrels usually in a modified and a full or improved modified. These are great guns for pheasant but they do kick a bit. You will also be able to sell it in five years for the same price that you bought it for if you take care of it.
