I say get the 2240 and mod it yourself. It will be more satisfying, and you'll learn something along the way.

Suppose the question is do you want a potent rifle or a pistol?
Really if you want a rifle i would suggest a qb78. Since thats sort of what you are trying to make. Although the skeleton stock is cool
