In the pursuit of excellence, LWRC International presents the IC-A5—a rifle that stands as a testament to innovation and reliability. Born from the rigorous demands of the U.S. Army Individual Carbine program, this model is crafted for those who refuse to compromise on performance.

The IC-A5's heart beats with a 16.1-inch cold hammer-forged barrel treated with NiCorr for enhanced durability and precision. With a 1:7 twist rate, it ensures optimal stabilization of various bullet weights in its chambering of 5.56mm NATO—perfectly suited for both tactical and sporting applications.

This carbine distinguishes itself with an adjustable low-profile two-position gas block, allowing seamless transition when using a suppressor without losing operational efficiency. The inclusion of LWRCI’s patented self-regulating short-stroke piston system further underscores its commitment to superior function under diverse conditions.

A defining feature is its monoforge upper receiver integrated seamlessly with a full-length Picatinny rail—ready to accommodate any optic setup imaginable, be it day or night operations. This pairs harmoniously with the user-configurable 12-inch SPR style scalloped-cut rail system providing quick access while maintaining adaptability in accessory mounting.

The ambidextrous design extends beyond mere convenience—it enhances mission readiness across all scenarios by incorporating dual control features such as bolt catch release and magazine release within reach on either side, alongside an intuitive ambidextrous charging handle and sling mount equipped with quick-detach points.

Finished in Patriot Brown, this firearm not only performs but looks exceptional doing so; every detail meticulously refined—from the Nickel-Boron coated LWRCI enhanced fire control group ensuring smooth operation to its spiral fluted barrel designed for heat dissipation without added weight penalty.

With an adjustable compact stock completing this formidable package, including integrated quick-detach points for versatile carry options—the IC-A5 affirms itself as more than just another carbine; it's your reliable partner whether at range or field duty commands respect through capability alone—a true embodiment of form meeting uncompromising function.
