The configuration shown is a 16" 7.62 x 51mm midlength gas system gun that takes SR-25 magazines. The folding Magpul stock saves space but leaves no room for a traditional AR style buffer system, so DRD Tactical used a side charging handle, overhead buffer system. The gun was designed to fit in a 3-day assault pack and it does. DRD Tactical tells me they have a 5.56mm version in the pipeline with 6.5, 6.8 versions envisioned along with a special "necked-down .338" cartridge that they are working up themselves.
Aside from clandestine/ninja work, the gun will appeal to anyone working in a space-limited environment. Broken down, the gun doesn't take up any more space than a short barrel M4 and provides a heck of a lot more punch and precision. I can see something like this finding its way into vehicle and pilot E&E kits, for instance.
