The trigger guard actually goes into the mag well when folded, so a mag can't be there. So, even though it folds into a "smallish" package, readying the rifle would consist of unfolding, locking, inserting mag, and chambering a round. Seems like enough stuff to do that you would never use it for a any sort of situation that would call for a weapon to be instantly ready. At which point, the few extra seconds to assemble an AR-15 are moot.
Not to mention, because of the lack of a pistol grip, there's no reason why some sort of folding stock (where the rifle could remain loaded, and even fire from the closed position) couldn't have been legally used instead - except perhaps in a handful of states, of course.
I guess I just don't get it... the folded package doesn't really seem that small - 26" is the length, and it seems like the "width" would be nearly 8-10". Not something you could really shove into a backpack easily (unlike the sub-2000) and it seems like a fixed stock gun that is instantly available would be a better choice for a "trunk" gun, given that you can't even have a mag in the magwell when folded here.
