Okay I need some help here guys. I have a friend who is in a wheelchair and wants to try shotguns. His goal is to primarily shoot trap and skeet at the local range but also has access to be able to go goose hunting so there may be a little bit of that. He has a budget of $1,000 on the very top end and preferably would spend less to be able to help with ammo. Most of my shotgun experience is with vintage type shotguns so I have admittedly not paid much of attention to modern offerings. With the type of shooting that he is wanting to do and being in a wheelchair I believe a pump gun is less than ideal for him. I personally think that a semi-auto would be best suited for him to help with weight and have a bit more versatility for other disciplines if he chooses to.
So what is a good go to shotgun nowadays given what I have said above? It would need to have interchangeable choke tubes and be able to shoot steel shot. Maybe something that is fairly soft shooting and probably not something that is ridiculously heavy either.
