There are any number of really nice old used shotguns for under 1K.
A lot depends on your plans and preferences. I own a Winchester Model 12 pump action that my Dad first owned. Great gun. I also have a Belguim A5 that I bought used from gunbroker.com years ago.
I prefer the A5 for duck and geese but use the Model 12 for dove.
The real issue is how well the gun fits you. I recommend fining a reputable gun store that knows how to fit a gun to you. I shot a friends A5 for a few days before I was comfortable that the gun was right for me.
This thread makes me wish I needed another shotgun
