We\u2019ve reached out to FoldAR for information on specs and MSRP, and we\u2019ll update this article when we receive word.<\/p>\n<p>For now, their website\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/foldar.com\/frequently-asked-questions\" campaign=\"FoldARFAQ\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">FAQ page<\/a> is the best place to get info. FoldAR plans to begin shipping in the fall. Their product will include a lifetime warranty, and the company assures its customers that the rifle maintains zero even after repeated deployment and thousands of rounds fired.<\/p>\n<p>The unit adds less than 4 ounces to the overall weight of the rifle and is compatible with most aftermarket AR parts. Exceptions include the \u201cthe upper, forearm, barrel extension and gas tube.\u201d<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_93122\" style=\"width: 771px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/foldar-1.png\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\" campaign=\"folding-ar-horizon\" title=\"Amid Legal Drama, New Folding AR on the Horizon\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-93122\" title=\"Amid Legal Drama, New Folding AR on the Horizon\" class=\"wp-image-93122 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.gunsamerica.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/foldar-1.png\" alt=\"Amid Legal Drama, New Folding AR on the Horizon\" width=\"761\" height=\"585\" srcset=\"https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/foldar-1.png 761w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/foldar-1-150x115.png 150w, https:\/\/gunsamerica.com\/digest\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/foldar-1-390x300.png 390w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 761px) 100vw, 761px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-93122\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">(<em>Photo: FoldAR<\/em>)<\/p><\/div>\n<p>If this idea sounds familiar, that\u2019s because F&amp;D Defense released their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.fddefense.com\/rifles\/xar\/\" campaign=\"FDDefenseFoldingAR\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"clickTracking\">XAR Invicta <\/a>folding rifle in 2017, and they\u2019re currently offering a complete upper for $1199.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s where things get interesting.<\/p>\n<p>FoldAR claims that they are the \u201coriginal inventors and patent holders\u201d for this folding rifle technology.
