The AWP is fore Police, so AWP standing for Arctic Warfare Police. it is always black, not olive drab or tan. It also has a shorter 24 in (610 mm) barrel in comparison to AW model. The AWP is normally chambered for 7.62 mm NATO/.308 Winchester or .243 Winchester ammunition. The AWP is similar to the AW AE which has a black finish, but is a cheaper non-military version of the AW series. | The AWP is fore Police, so AWP standing for Arctic Warfare Police. it is always black, not olive drab or tan.

How to distinguish-The Basics
1st off for any one confused with whether a rifle is an R700 in an AICS chassis or an Accuracy international, look at the bolt. the AI l96 series uses a ball shape bolt at the end of a round piece of metal while the R700 uses a flat "Tab" bolt handle
2nd. surefire way to tell a standard AW from an AW magnum. Look at the magazine! the magnum is .338 so the magazine is clearly longer than the standard AW in 7.62 NATO.
