The Backpack Rifle: Osprey Defense Folding Platform at GOALS 2025

By David Hoang “Johnny Winn” ( Founder, Lead Creator )

GOALS 2025 Media Range Day, Tactical Playground HQ got hands-on with one of the most unique firearms of the entire event — the Osprey Defense folding rifle platform, outfitted with Unique AR’s custom handguards.

A couple of twists, a quick fold, and suddenly you’ve got a rifle that collapses small enough to fit inside a daypack… then deploys back into a full-size carbine in seconds. This setup included a suppressor, an adjustable stock, and — for extra chaos — no sights, which made ringing steel even more entertaining.

If you’re into unconventional firearms, clever engineering, and wild range day surprises, this one is absolutely worth a look.
