A wealth of information!! Now I just have to make up my mind. How many Stamps will I need for a 7½", quad-rail forward assist, with pistol-grip ? Changing my EBR into my EBP. Pat.
Pat , here's a link to help clear up the registration issue. If you build a pistol it sounds like your lower is out(it probably was manufactured as a rifle) unless you register it on a form 1 and pay the $200 tax.

Do you want to put a vertical forward grip on a pistol? I believe there are regulations governing that sort of thing. Will someone please address this?
I thought that stripped lowers were transferred as "other".. Not so much as an AOW, but as other so that the could be built up as either a pistol or a rifle?
But I MAY remember reading somewhere that pistol lowers are incapable of accepting a stock?
Yes. Putting a vertical foregrip onto a pistol turns it into an unregistered (and thus illegal) AOW (Any Other Weapon).
Making an AOW legally requires the same registration and $200 tax stamp as making an SBR.
Would this be considered usable as a grip?
Yes.
Yes, and that makes it a No No AOW.
