The LWRCI ICDI Discovery 5.56 NATO 16″ Direct Impingement M‑LOK Black CA Compliant Rifle is a California‑legal AR‑style semi‑automatic rifle built on LWRC International’s proven direct impingement system and finished in durable black anodized steel. Chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, it features a 16.10‑inch Cold Hammer Forged barrel with a 1:7″ twist rate and a 1/2″‑28 TPI threaded muzzle with A2 flash hider for accessory compatibility and balanced handling. Designed with CA compliance in mind, this rifle includes a 10‑round capacity (10+1) with compliance mechanisms that prevent magazine removal unless the upper and lower are separated. The rifle rides on a free‑float M‑LOK handguard, includes an adjustable 6‑position compact stock, a Magpul MOE+ grip, and is optic‑ready for sight mounting. With its combination of reliable function, rugged construction, and state‑compliant configuration, it’s an excellent choice for range use and general purpose shooting.
