The LWRC International DI (Direct Impingement) is a line of firearms that feature a direct impingement gas operating system, a departure from LWRC's typical gas piston designs. This series offers a more traditional AR-15 operating system compared to LWRC's piston-driven models, providing a lightweight and familiar platform for shooters. The LWRC International DI series includes rifles and pistols chambered in popular calibers such as 5.56mm NATO/.223 Remington. The direct impingement system uses the gas tapped from the barrel to cycle the action, which is a characteristic of the AR-15 platform. Key features of the LWRC International DI include a modular design with a free-float handguard that allows for easy customization and attachment of accessories. The lower receiver typically includes ambidextrous controls, making it user-friendly for both left- and right-handed shooters. The DI series maintains LWRC's commitment to quality, reliability, and accuracy, making it a solid choice for various applications, including home defense, sport shooting, and law enforcement use.
