It looks like some manner of magazine-fed, bolt-action rifle with the magazine and bolt removed.

Looks eerily like the frame (sans the scope) of the new issue sniper rifle for the US military..

Also, that looks like AAC written on the side of it. Given that and the large appearance of the metal under the handguard, I would say that it's outfitted with an integral sound suppressor.

Looks a little like a carbine conversion of a S&W 327 of some sort. R8 or TRR perhaps.

Its a Remington action fitted into a RACS stock, chambered in .300 Blackout. AAC had it at shot show.

Chambered for 300 Blackout, the as-yet-unnamed rifle has a 9″ barrel with an integral suppressor that clocks in at just 117db with a 220 grain bullet.
looks like i was just imagining things with that whole S&w 327 carbine thing.

Wow. Stormtroopers use Remingtons. Who'd have thunk it?

Check again, they used MG 34's and 42's. Any Star Wars fan knows better.
The Hogue grip is a common AR accessory, the sniper stock too. It's basically an exercise in getting recognition for the caliber, which is the old .300 Whisper renamed, a .30 cal bullet in a necked out 5.56 case. It's considered a new hot item to run subsonic suppressed. As a supersonic load, it's been out since the '70s and didn't get any traction then. Nobody was hunting with AR's, and certainly not with a poodleshooter caliber. .308 battle rifles were preferred.
Now that certain 6mm variants are out, suddenly the .300 is all over the net in the lastest marketing blitz. Doesn't hurt to read up on the ballistics and decide for yourself.
