Thank you, Abelard
I dislike pump guns in general and specifically for shooting clays. They deliver a lot of recoil, especially with the off-the-shelf ammo their owner is likely using. Their operation, while reliable, is "manual" interfering with a quick smooth second shot. Their stock configuration and handling is comparatively awkward.
I would suggest a gas operated semi-auto. Good guns from Mossberg, Weatherby, Tristar, CZ and even Remington and Beretta can be found new and used around the $500 mark.
