FoldAR QD Barrel System

One Rifle: an extraordinary rifle designed to accomplish multiple configurations of calibers and barrel lengths without compromising any areas of performance, reliability, safety or accuracy. History of the “One Rifle” begins in 1920 and ends with FoldAR leaping far beyond the “One Rifle” concept in 2023.

One Rifle to Rule Them All: an exceedingly extraordinary rifle, having all the advantages of the “One Rifle”, but also including the ability to conceal inside an EDC backpack, remain fully assembled, and be deployed within seconds.

Create, configure, and reconfigure your Concealed Carry Rifle^TM with additional FoldAR^® QD Barrel Systems. Our patented folding upper gives you the highest level of modularity and concealability possible without sacrificing any areas of performance, reliability, weight, or safety when attached to your FoldAR firearm or complete upper. The FoldAR QD Barrel System is interchangeable within seconds, allowing you to configure an “all-applications” weapon system kit within one easily transportable package.

Important Notes:

• FoldAR Barrel Systems are only for owners of a 2023 [MoBetta]-Present FoldAR firearm or complete upper.
• Not interchangeable with third part upper receivers or 2018-2022 FoldAR products.
• Swapping between .300 AAC Blackout and 5.56×45 NATO does not require a bolt/BCG swap.
• Swapping between 6.5Gren/6ARC/7.62×39 and 300Blk/5.56NATO requires a bolt/BCG swap.

One Rifle – Barrel Selection Guidelines:

• 9.0″ – Our most popular barrel length for CQB-work because of its ability to remain suppressed while maintaining concealability (Colion Noir) within a small 16″ EDC sling-pack. Combined with a collapsed stock or pistol brace and a compact suppressor, our 9.0″ barrel allows the weapon system to fold in half at 14.75″.
• 10.5″ – As the newest addition to our barrel lengths, the 10.5″ barrel matches nicely with a standard carbine stock or pistol brace and compact suppressor, also allowing the weapon system to fold in half at 14.75″.
• 12.5″ – Because of its mid-range capability while maintaining concealability within a small 16″ EDC sling-pack, or suppressed within a standard 18″ backpack, our 12.5″ barrel configuration dominates in performance and concealability. Combined with a collapsed stock or pistol brace, our 12.5″ barrel allows the weapon system to fold in half, at 14.75″. Note: this setup fits in most 18″ EDC packs when a compact suppressor is installed.
• 16.0″ – (Rifles) Our most popular among civilians, marksmen and hunters because of its Always-Non-NFA legal status, its capabilities of performing at distance with precision (Alabama Arsenal), and its ability to continuously return to zero (Pew Pew Tactical). Combined with a collapsed stock, our 16.0″ barrel allows the weapon system to fold slightly over half, at 17.75″. When a full-length fixed rifle stock is attached, it folds in half at 17.75″.

One Rifle – Caliber Selection Guidelines:

• 5.56×45 NATO – We chamber and identify our barrel as .223 Wylde, as the best chamber design to safely and precisely accept a variety of both .223 Remington and 5.56×45 NATO ammunition. Choose this caliber for the widest availability of affordable ammunition for training to precision hunting, as well as various Law Enforcement and Defense applications.
• .300 AAC Blackout – 300BLK for its wide spectrum of performance in delivering suppressed energy.
• 7.62×39 – x39 for its higher ballistic energy and its general availability (10.5″ only).
• 6.5 Grendel – 6.5 Grendel for its stability and higher energy delivery and at distance (16″ only).
• 6mm ARC – Exclusively within our Proof Research Carbon Fiber line of barrels, 6ARC is selected for its high performance at distance (16″ only; however, other lengths and calibers are available upon request).
