there doesn't seem to be much out there besides random forum posts about people who wants it NOW
I am thinking great shortrange pig gun, even tackle a moose up close if I am hunting with a dog
and fun to shoot!
Anyone got their hands on one?
a pump action carbine in a hefty calibre is such a good idea, why haven't anyone else done it? I know there are those cowboy action replicas but they have too weak of a calibre
to hunt pigs and upwards in Sweden I need certain prestanda, 44 magnum is just shy so I need alittle more
sure I could go slugs in a pump action but this is smaller and handier
pumps are the fastest of the repeters don't you think?

This is a slide-action carbine rifle offered in .500 S&W. Its design allows easy breakdown for cleaning, maintenance, and transportation. With an 18 inch barrel, the longest dissasembled dimension is 19 inches allowing easy transport.
It is equipped with a XS ghost ring small (.191in) aperture sight and a large bright white front dot. This setup is great for rapid target acquisition on multiple or moving targets. Using factory loaded ammunition from 275 to 500 grains it is effective to distances up to 150 yards. Fast handling and large heavy bullets make this an excellent brush gun.
Several options are offered by the manufacturer including engraving, custom stocks, and stainless steel.
