Is it worded in such a way that navies with navy stocks and artillerys with artillery stocks are OK or is it more generalized?
Important info I did not know... "ignorance of the law is no excuse"

Gary, look up the
National Firearms Act (NFA) of 1934, read until you find the term "
Short Barreled Rifle (SBR)"... Then go to the BATFE (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) website and see the list of the ONLY versions of pistols that can use a shoulder stock because they are
Curios and Relics (C&R) and are exempted from the National Firearms Act.
Putting a shoulder stock on a pistol with less than a 16" barrel, (if it is not on the C&R list) is a federal offense (construction of a short barreled rifle). A $10,000 fine and a Ten Year all expenses paid vacation to a Federal "Resort" facility, and loss of your privilege to own firearms is a big price to pay for ignorance of the law.
