The 7.62x51mm NATO version AW is fitted with a muzzle brake which serves to reduce recoil and muzzle flip. The AW is normally supplied with a 10-round box magazine. Both versions are housed in either olive drab or black stock panels and black metalwork. Butt length can be adjusted by fitting spacers to suit the shooter.

The "Arctic Warfare Magnum"; Based on the AW rifle with minimal changes to accommodate Magnum length cartridges. Detachable box magazine which takes 5 rounds. Normal calibers are .300 Winchester Magnum and .338 Lapua Magnum. Designated L115A1 Long Range Rifle within the British military, the latter as the Arctic Warfare Super Magnum or L115A3 LRR. It is described by Guiness World Records to be the most advanced sniper rifle of all time and was used by Cpl. Craig Harrison of the British Army to establish a new record distance for a confirmed kill shot in Afghanistan in November 2009, surpassing the previous record held by a [[McMillan TAC-50]] fired by Cpl. Rob Furlong of the Canadian Armed Forces. The .300 Win Mag version (AWM-F), equipped with a folding stock and Zeiss 3-12x56 SSG scope, is used by the German Bundeswehr as the G22.

The '''AWP''' rifle has a stiffer and shorter 610mm (24") barrel to maximise precision. Usual calibres are .243 Win (1 in 10 twist) and .308 Win (1 in 12 twist). The rifle is designed to perform best with match-grade ammunition. Butt length can be adjusted to suit the firer by using spacers. The AWP differs to other models, in that it's the only AW weapon system to have a black finish.
