Heart of the FoldAR System
At the core of every FoldAR is a patented folding-barrel interface engineered at the barrel-to-receiver junction—the strongest, most repeatable location possible. This is where accuracy is won or lost, and why FoldAR performs like a fixed-barrel rifle when it matters most.
The same interface enables tool-less barrel and caliber changes in seconds, allowing One Rifle to adapt to multiple roles without sacrificing alignment, reliability, or return-to-zero... while adding additional strength where it matters most.
No tools. No loss of zero. No compromises.
One Rifle—engineered to do more. -
Maintains Zero After Every Fold
The patented FoldAR locking system ensures repeatable alignment every time the rifle is deployed. Optics retain zero through repeated folding cycles — eliminating the need for re-zero after transport.
