LWRC International Di 5.56 Gray 16" 11-Round Rifle

The LWRC International DI 5.56 Gray 16" rifle is purpose-built for law enforcement, military personnel, and serious tactical shooters who demand reliability under demanding conditions. This rifle combines a mid-length gas system with a proven direct impingement platform, delivering the accuracy and consistency required for precision rifle work, dynamic entries, and extended patrol operations. The 16-inch barrel strikes the critical balance between maneuverability in confined spaces—vehicles, stairwells, buildings—and sufficient velocity retention for effective 5.56 NATO ballistics at tactical ranges.

LWRC's modular direct impingement design minimizes heat signature and maintenance burden compared to piston systems, while the 16-inch cold-hammer-forged barrel ensures tight chamber tolerances and extended service life. The gray Cerakote finish provides superior corrosion resistance and low-light operability without the visibility penalty of bright finishes. A 1:7 twist rate (inferred from DI platform standard) stabilizes a full spectrum of 5.56 loads, from 55-grain varmint rounds to 77-grain match ammunition, making this rifle equally effective for precision shooting and high-round-count training. The flat-top receiver accommodates any Picatinny rail optic, while the M-LOK accessory slots allow tool-free installation of lights, lasers, and vertical grips.

Operators and units seeking a no-compromise tactical rifle for home defense, law enforcement duty, or military deployment will find the LWRC International DI platform delivers sub-MOA accuracy with mil-spec AR-15 ergonomics and controls. The rifle's modular architecture accepts standard M16/M4 magazines and components, ensuring spare parts availability in the field. At 32 inches overall length, this rifle maintains the handling characteristics essential for rapid target transitions and tight-quarters movement while preserving the ballistic efficiency of a mid-length system. Installation and field maintenance require only basic armorer knowledge and standard AR-15 tools.
