Plant.One Well-known member Oct 10, 2016 #4 just dont try to shoulder your bipod as if it were a buttstock, then it would be a naughty no-no!
JoeBobOutfitters New member Oct 11, 2016 #5 A bipod is fine as long its not also a vertical foregrip, such a the Grip-Pod. Some handguns, such as a Ruger Charger, come with a bipod from the factory.

Plant.One Well-known member Oct 12, 2016 #7 the BATFE says a vertical foregrip on an AR pistol makes it an AOW - and therefore requires the necessary stamp to be legal. however an angled foregrip like the magpul AFG is just fine. i dont make these silly rules, just like you i still have to abide by them. my ar pistol has an AFG on it, as close to the magwell as possible without interfering with the ability for the upper to pivot on the front pin.
