A first shotgun novel.

KBob-

Did you decide on a gun? Pump or autoloader? I'm about to get one for clays, after I try a pump. If it goes well with doubles, I'm leaning toward a 870 Wingmaster. Otherwise, it'll likely be an 11-87 Premier, both easily within your price range.
 
Agree with Dfariswheel - it'd be REAL hard to go wrong with a Remington such as this one:

But beyond that, I'd look at the Mossberg 500/500A/590 series of guns, or the Benelli Nova.

If a semi-auto is your thing, then it's harder to stay under $1,000, but you can in some varieties of quality guns: Rem 1187, Beretta 390/391, Browning Gold, Winchester Super X2 (now super x3?), Benelli M1/M2. Or if you want to go a little crazy, get a Saiga-12:
