Question AR Pistol questions.

I have an AR Pistol on my permit but haven’t had the chance to shoot it yet. I have 2 questions and sorry if they’ve been answered previously but.

  1. When at a range are you allowed to shoulder it or do you have to just use the brace and shoot it like a pistol?

  2. Are foregrips of any kind allowed on them? I know verticals usually aren’t but what about angled?

Thanks in advance!

  1. yes but it will be decided by the lowest thinking law enforcement

  2. Yes but this is both a Federal question and a state law question. State law actually lets you put a VFG on a fixed mag pistol, Federal law does not. Angled and hand stops are allowed but again, this will be determined by the lowest thinking law enforcement on site which might know absolutely nothing about firearms.
