The LWRC IC-M5 MK II delivers advanced piston-driven reliability in a precision-engineered platform chambered in .223 Rem/5.56 NATO. This 16.1-inch barrel configuration provides optimal velocity and accuracy while maintaining compact maneuverability for tactical applications and sporting use.
What Makes This Different
LWRC's short-stroke piston system eliminates the fouling and heat transfer common in direct impingement designs. The monolithic upper receiver integrates a full-length rail system without the weak points of separate handguards. Cold hammer-forged barrels undergo stress relief and cryogenic treatment for consistent accuracy across temperature extremes. This design approach reduces maintenance intervals while improving reliability in adverse conditions.Key Features
