LWRC International has built a reputation for its semi-automatic guns, and new for 2025, from the Maryland-based gunmaker is the latest advancement in the brand’s iconic Individual Carbine (IC) lineup. The IC-MKII carbine, featuring a 16.1” barrel, will come with never-before-seen M-Lok compatibility incorporated in its Monoforge upper receiver and handguard arrangement.

With this newest LWRCI Individual Carbine for 2025, you’ll get that same great, clean-running performance the brand is known to produce out of its 5.56 NATO-chambered semi-automatics thanks to a proprietary, short-stroke gas-piston operating system with self-regulating properties. The IC-MKII comes standard with an in-house, cold-hammer-forged barrel that features indicative spiral fluting and a black nitride treatment for corrosion and wear protection. The barrel’s rifling twist is forged to 1:7” to stabilize a wide range of projectile weights.

Fitted to the fully ambidextrous, forged-aluminum receivers are a host of premium components. You’ll get an in-house-designed compact stock and pistol grip, with the former providing adjustability while the latter offers fish-scale texturing for positive purchase. Ambidextrous controls adorn the IC-MKII, including the gun’s magazine release, which are signature features of LWRCI products. LWRCI Enhanced Fire Control Group comes with investment castings that are X-rayed for imperfections and nickel-boron coated for a smooth, crisp trigger-pull with positive reset.

In-house designed and manufactured Skirmish sights come standard on the new IC-MKII as well as A5 two-position gas block and ambidextrous charging handle. The new IC-MKII model is available in both pistol and rifle length barrel configurations of 10.5” 12.7”, 14.7”, 16.1” with available colors on the new-for-2025 Individual Carbine coming in either black anodized or Cerakote finishes in Tungsten Grey, Flat Dark Earth, Patriot Brown and OD Green colors. MSRP starts at $2,865. For more information, visit LWRCI.com.
