Cabela's and Dicks has some good sales this weekend on shotguns.
If it was just for home defence I would say the Rem. 870 but you say you want to do some skeet shooting, for that I would go with a Rem 11-87 or one of the 1100's or even the new CTI.
I shoot a premier trap Rem 11-87 and I love it, I got into other things the last few years but not to many years ago I was shooting trap 3 to 5 days a week and a shit load of rounds went though my 11-87 and I never had a problem with it.
I am a leftie and if I was to buy a new one now I would go with the 105 CTI as it spits out the bottom.
