Can AR Pistol Have Bipod?

[insin]

Hello all,
I was just curious, if shooting from a bench, can an AR pistol have a bipod to steady the shot? I would not want any conflict or misunderstanding that a bipod attached to the rail to be misconstrued as a forward type pistol grip. I know that's a longshot, but I want to stay 100% completely legal, both to the letter of the law and any LEO that might misunderstand the situation.

Thanks

ATF allows a bipod on pistols. Example being the Ruger Charger.

I have not seen anything that would indicate that CADOJ would consider that bipod to be a "second handgrip"

i think he meant something like this.

As long as you dont use the grippod. Im pretty sure thats considered a forward grip.
