I would think that they're considered in rifle configuration regardless of a lack of furniture. 16 or 20 inch barrel would be self explanatory right?

Not sure, thats why I am both asking and researching, according to this article, which could be wrong I dont know, pistols can have barrels longer than 16".

Due to the fact that the NFA doesn’t regulate pistol barrel length, barrels shorter than 16? are found on many AR Pistols, but they’re not required. You could build one with an 18? barrel if you desired, the only difference would be that you could place a stock on an 18? barreled pistol, converting it to a rifle and not running afoul of the NFA.Seems like since the OEM 1, and 2 never had a stock and if its true you can build a pistol with a longer than 16" barrel, then the OEM1 and 2 could be transferred as a pistol?
