Good suggestions from everybody but I don't agree that a 20 gauge or even a 2 3/4 12 bore will do the work. (Sorry King)
Geese are big birds and require some killing, you can't rely on having them over the decoys at 20 yards every time.
I shoot a 3 1/2 inch 10 gauge at them and would shoot an 8 gauge if it was legal. Get a long chambered gun and you'll have something to where you won't have to pick your shots like you would with a lighter fowling piece.
A place to start might be an LC Smith Wildfowl, you see them sometimes in the $2000 range. Send it off to somebody and have the head of the stock glassed to make it stronger then fire away.
