The AWC Spec M1™ silencer is the most effective and compact device available for the M1A/M14 rifle systems adding approximately 6.5 inches to the length of the barrel. The SPEC M1™ suppressor was originally developed for our Model G2 Rifle in the configuration of the Spectrum 2000.  The rifle was a Bullpup design utilizing the M1A/M14 barreled action. This was a limited production run for several SPEC OP units. In mid 2002, a new requirement by the Government caused us to produce this suppressor once more. 

In early 2009 dramatic changes were made to the already fantastic Spectrum 2000 suppressor. Our continuous R&D program resulted in the new AWC Spec M1 7.62 silencer. Among the many innovations the Spec M1 features a reduction in weight, a new complex heat distribution system and enhanced overall performance using our advanced frequency shifting technology for which AWC is well known. This suppressor reduces muzzle blast to a level well below that of a .22 caliber rifle, the flash signature is eliminated and the recoil is significantly reduced providing a perfectly balanced instrument. All of this is accomplished without any modifications to the barrel.
