If it's a pistol that's not on the BATFE exception list, it's generally not legal to put a stock on it. To escape the "short barreled" part, you could have a 16" barrel. This is how the regulation is dealt with in the case of a modern-created or modified pistol with a stock--like a Luger Carbine made from a P.08.
