Will it work sure, but you would be much better off spending the $30 bucks on finding a used stock on the EE or gunbroker

What is the specific gun you are using? A Mossberg 500/590 is ideal set up with a bird's head pistol grip. A Remington 870 can use either Bird's Head or Pistol Grip.

Other makes may not have aftermarket available.

As for Rules, not certain about it.

PGO shotguns are worthless for pretty much everything other than door breaching or looking cool.   Go ahead and shoot a match with your PGO gun and you'll see.

I wouldn't even bother trying to use it without a buttstock.

Pistol grip shotguns are worthless for HD and pretty much everything else. The only real use the have is door breaching.

Go ahead and bring out your shotgun to a match.

Shoot a stage with it and then someone in your squad will feel sorry for you and loan you a complete gun.

You get to compare the two so you will be prepared for your second match.  (We already know what you will decide.)
