Tried to find pic of hybrid next to a ba cannot find wondering where they cut the difference of weight?
Mostly in the stock adjustments? Or less structural support in the complete stock ?
I haven't actually measured everything on mine, but they have thinned the wall thicknesses in lots of spots and removed the thumbwheels. I think I'm going to like having the lighter option, as I ended up hunting with a comp setup last year.
I have an ultralight on order for a 9-10 lb option with the ergo's I'm already used to. Once I get everything in hand and sorted out I plan a big write up of the system.
Ive had both and one thing about the hybrid is that I keep my cheek piece up pretty high so I cant remove the bolt. I have to get out an Allen key to lower the cheek then I can remove the bolt. I like to take my bolt out when I case it, and obviously when cleaning so that's one more time consuming step. Best case go with the hybrid folder if you can find one. Also with the comp there is rail in front of the scope for clip ons. I dont have any NV or need for this so I don't miss it.
Hybrid is shorter and doesnt have NV bridge.
Thinner and more holes cut.
No wheel for tool-less adjusting the cheek and butt plate.
But same other than those 3 main differences.
And new versions of both BA Comp and Hybrid have Ambidextrous action cuts for RH or LH bolts....and the BA Comp no longer has the Castle Cut in the magwell

Anybody know if there's an accessory for the mag release; my index finger doesn't quite reach and I noticed two holes?
I replaced all of the allen screws in the stock of the hybrid with thumb screws, I like it much better now. Having those studs was about the damn dumbest idea of all time, but it did at least differentiate somewhat between the models. The hybrid with a weight kit I prefer to the BA Comp.
I'm in California so I can't get a suppressor until I leave but I ordered my MPA Hybrid with the SR folding stock that will hold a can. I got a TBAC suppressor mount brake too.
