Any review on the take-down kit from Pantheon? Interesting idea if it doesn't mess with accuracy and point of aim after removing the barrel. I know most people won't put them on their long-range builds, but any experience with it yet, good or bad?

You're relying on the Pantheon assembly to keep the barrel secured, rather than the fitment between the barrel extension and receiver. It's a niche item, not specifically designed with accuracy in mind.
I would be surprised if poi doesn't shift a little. The hand guard has a long hole for the gas tube that allows the hand guard rotate 90 degrees. That's what allows the hand guard to ratchet on the upper. Theoretically, the barrel should fall in the same spot every time but it's also a 7-1/2 inch barrel. The goal having a packable weapon that would be good enough at closer ranges. It's not slow to assemble but there are a few steps. The brace won't fold unless the bolt is forward and the barrel won't attach unless the bolt is locked to the rear. I just put it together yesterday and I haven't made the time to bring it to the range to test out yet.
That's why I said it's a niche item. Just be wary of the gas tube end when you're putting it together.
