I think you're going to have a problem with the folding stock.

Not from the ATF's perspective. The standard is to measure the rifle from one extreme to the other, that is, from the barrel to the end of the unfolded stock.
Rifleman1776 does have a very valid point, though - a fella can follow the law to the letter, but it's all for naught if it costs him ever penny to prove it.
It only costs a postage stamp to describe the configuration to the ATF and get a letter back saying that it's A-OK.
One other thing, though - some states measure the shortest length (stock folded, for example), so you do need to exercise care in that regard.
