A Remington 870 pump in 12 gauge will do just fine. Get one with a 28" barrel, 3" chamber, and interchangeable chokes for your wingshooting needs. Get a second barrel, 22" long, 3" chamber, and rifled, with rifle sights, if Illinois allows slugs for deer hunting. This short barrel should also be on it for home defense. Load it up with a heavy duck/pheasant load of #6's or #4's for home use, ignoring the fact that is is rifled. Won't make any difference at conversational ranges. You should be able to get out the door with the gun and the extra barrel for around $400 or so if you look around.
