The rifle pictured is a GA Precision AR-10 with Wil Gomer hand-painted A-TACS color scheme and the HTI Kopfjager Sling, endorsed by none other than Chuck Mawhinney (more on that soon).

It's cool, but not new. Google Sotech Sniper Skid Plate to see a previously existing design. Great for protecting/stabilizing a forend against fence posts/trees, etc. Not hating by any means, there's room for more folks to make gear.
