AR15 receivers are supposed to be registered as "other" and can be built is either a rifle or pistol. Once you build a lower reciever into a rifle, you CANNOT (legally) turn it into a pistol.

There is nothing physically preventing it. An AR pistol is just a short barrelled upper on a lower with no stock. Dumb laws are dumb.
