This is a brand new in box LWRC M6 Individual Carbine SPR AR-15 semi automatic rifle chambered for 5.56mm NATO. The M6 Individual Carbine family is the direct descendant of the rifles developed by LWRC to meet the requirements of the U.S. Army Individual Carbine program. It includes some revolutionary new features while maintaining the basic M4/AR15/M16 architecture that has served our nation’s armed forces well for the past 40 years. This rifle boasts a practical Patriot Brown Cerakote finish, similar in tone to the popular Flat Dark Earth but darker. Cerakote is a type of thermal cured firearms coating applied over the standard Type 3 hard coat anodizing and offers unparalleled abrasion and corrosion resistance. It also incorporates the benefits of Teflon without compromising its durability.

All members of the IC family feature a new fully ambidextrous lower receiver. Dual controls for bolt catch and release, magazine release, and fire control mean that both right- and left- handed shooters can use the rifle to its full effectiveness. In addition, dual controls give shooters the option of using their offhand side to accommodate barriers or injury. They can effectively manipulate the controls without having to switch hands. Despite its dramatically improved functionality, this new dual control lower receiver is compatible with all legacy AR15 pattern upper receivers.

The Monoforge upper receiver used in all members of the IC family is a further evolution of the M6A2-SPR platform introduced by LWRCI in 2011. It features a user-configurable rail system. Moreover, the mounting base for the handguard is machined as part of the upper receiver for added strength and reduced weight. The charging handle is also ambidextrous, to accommodate any operator.

LWRC rifles and carbines utilize cold hammer forged barrels made out of 41V45 steel alloy and treated with NiCorr surface conversion technology. Cold hammer forging takes an oversized barrel blank, and using high pressure rotary hammers, compacts the barrel blank over a mandrel. This forms perfect rifling devoid of tool marks. It also compacts the molecular structure of the metal making it denser and stronger. These barrels can take a lot more use and abuse than a standard barrel before any degradation in accuracy or loss of velocity. NiCorr surface conversion has proved more lubricious, harder wearing, more heat and corrosion resistant than the hard chrome normally used in the bore. LWRC claims their barrels can handle 20,000 rounds before replacement, as compared to 6,000-10,000 rounds on a standard M4. The spiral fluting shaves 20% of the weight off the barrel and relieves the longitudinal stresses that can cause the stringing seen in conventionally fluted barrels. The 16.1" barrel has a popular 1:7" twist rate capable of stabilizing the heaviest rounds available, and has an AAC 51T combination flash hider/sound suppressor adapter installed. AAC's innovative 51T allows compatible sound suppressors to be mounted in moments without tools.

The bolt carriers of all M6 rifles are coated with a proprietary nickel coating that nearly eliminates corrosion while providing greatly increased lubricity. This coating provides permanent lubrication to the moving parts.

A comfortable Magpul MOE+ rubberized pistol grip and LWRC adjustable butt stock are outfitted. This rifle features LWRC BUIS and one 30 round PMAG are included.
