Pump action rifles; balance?
Hi everyone,

I am currently jonesing for a Taurus Thunderbolt in 45 colt. Or something like it.

It appears from the pictures that the forward hand would be severely off balance and the front grip needs to move out, say 6" or whatever.

My question is, what would I be up against getting a custom version with the front grip extended, and is there anything out there that does this, in something like a "big pistl caliber"?
