The LWRCI IC-9 delivers pistol-caliber carbine performance in a compact, maneuverable package. This 9mm platform combines LWRCI's precision manufacturing with proven direct blowback operation for reliable function across diverse ammunition types.
What Makes This Different
Unlike standard AR-9 conversions, the IC-9 features purpose-built geometry optimized for 9mm ballistics. The cold hammer-forged barrel and proprietary bolt system deliver consistent accuracy while the ambidextrous controls provide enhanced ergonomics. LWRCI's quality control standards ensure each rifle meets military-grade specifications for durability and precision.
Key Features

The IC-9 excels in close-quarters applications where maneuverability matters most. Law enforcement agencies appreciate the reduced over-penetration risk of 9mm ammunition combined with carbine-length sight radius accuracy. Competition shooters benefit from the platform's inherently low recoil and rapid follow-up shot capability. The compact dimensions make it ideal for vehicle deployment while maintaining effective range out to 100 yards.
