The folding version is unique to other stocks in that it folds just forward of the grip rather than behind it. This allows for it to achieve an even shorter OAL when folded for putting in a pack or case.

I really love the look of these stocks. If Arcteryx produced a rifle stock it would look like this. The colours, shape and futuristic mounting systems remind me totally of their clothing.
The stock comes with a tube like forend with plenty of holes for mounting rails in a variety of positions. They also make a different type of forend mount that instead of screwing directly into the forend it uses a round mount that vices the rails onto the stock allowing you to slide it forward or back to any specific position you want.
Here are some pics I stole off their website as I didn't take one at the show:
They also had a lightweight sporter prototype there set for release soon. You can see it up on the first picture in the bottom. Rather than a tube forend it has a smooth light forend.
