The Spectre HC is built around a stamped-steel upper receiver with right-side ejection and an integral ventilated barrel shroud, paired to a polymer fire-control/grip module. This layout keeps the working components robust while maintaining a distinctive, compact profile associated with the Spectre/M4 family.
Its operating system is closed-bolt blowback with a linear-hammer ignition, as noted for this model line. Controls include an ambidextrous safety and a decocker, plus a unique magazine release positioned inside the trigger guard for rapid access.
A top-mounted, non-reciprocating charging handle is a hallmark of the Spectre design, aiding manipulation without disturbing the sight picture. The sling ring is integrated with the rear takedown pin for simple attachment in configurations that use a sling.
Iron sights are protected front and rear. The hooded front post is screw-adjustable, and the rear sight is shrouded and adjustable for practical zeroing.
The proprietary quad-column "casket" magazine system is a defining feature of the Spectre family. Stated capacity is 30+1 in 9mm Luger, and this example includes one factory 30-round magazine. The pistol bears the F.I.E. Corp., Miami, FL import mark, and matching internal component numbering was observed.
