1) What does OAL length have to do with designation as a pistol? I thought a pistol was a barrel less than <16", or OAL <26", and that you don't need to comply with BOTH <16" AND <26" OAL. In an earlier thread regarding VFG's someone stated that a pistol with an OAL greater than 26.3" could have a VFG because the gun is now designated as a "firearm" instead of a pistol. WHAT? I thought it was either a long gun or a pistol. What the heck is a "firearm", and how would such a designation effect legality of a AR pistol build with (hypothetically) a RRA pistol buffer, Sig Arm Brace, angled foregrip, barrel length of 13" with flash hider, and OAL length of 29". That is a legal configuration not requiring a stamp stamp, correct?
3) Could such a build be used to hunt deer in Georgia? I have been unable to find any regulations stating a maximum OAL for a pistol as a hunting weapon.
