The XAR Invicta Folding Rifle, we first showed you during the NRA Annual Meeting is now shipping.

The secret is the taper around the barrel extension which allows it to pivot right into position in the tapered upper receiver.

Then, the barrel is locked into place via a latch, similar to many suitcases.
