Default Balance on 28 Gauge Repro 26" barrels

Are these balanced well? I'm considering a purchase and very much like the 28" barrels, but sure don't want to go with Full/Mod chokes (which is what was made (I think). If I want to go with what I'd describe as more bird hunting type chokes I'm looking at 26" barreled guns. Accordingly, are those guns going to be muzzlelight as a rule?

PS. I know I can't shoot a muzzlelight gun (I've tried), but am wondering whether those fine Japanese makers actually balanced the guns (boring out buttstock for example) so they would swing as they should. PS. I normally shoot pistol grip stock guns better then straightstocked guns. However with a 26" barrel and pistolgrip stock I'd think those guns would be even more muzzlelight as compared the english stocked versions. Appreciate any and all responses of course.
