See below - that's a S&W M&P15R upper on an M&P lower with fixed stock. The proportions look a little off but it handles just fine for me. YMMV, of course.

If I had to, I'd go pinned as well, I don't love the look of the massive fixed ones, personally. Lucky for me, in VA, I probably won't have to make that choice, unless they bring it Federal (again).
If you want a stock that is fixed, but smaller than the A1/A2, get a sully stock.
Another option would be the Magpul PRS. The Sully's do look cool too.
If I were in your shoes I'd go with a pinned magpul stock.
Go with a pinned collapsible. This is what I decided to do with mine. The advantage with that is that you can pin it in the position you prefer the most. With a fixed length, you're stuck with that length. Granted, you won't be able to adjust your buttstock on the fly, but you can still set it to the length that you prefer before pinning it. It also affords you the ability to turn it back into a regular collapsible buttstock should you move to another state.
Thats a good question. The reciever tube on a fixed stock is different. Unless they make a reciever tube I am unaware of then no, I dont think. Usually when I see a fixed stock with sling, its either got a 3 point or a mount to the side. 3 points get tangled from what I hear. Ive never used one
