Innovation and reliability in every detail
The ZOV’s main asset is its thoughtful engineering, focused on maximum reliability and ease of use. The rifle is one of the lightest in our production: it weighs under 4 kg, which dramatically simplifies extended transport and maneuverability in the field. Its key distinction is the use of an improved Gas Piston system. This solution provides enhanced operational reliability because propellant gases and carbon fouling are kept out of the receiver. In addition, the system ensures softer recoil, which is critical for weapon control and target retention during rapid fire. Every ZOV component has been carefully refined to eliminate the typical shortcomings of comparable models, making this rifle not just a tool but your reliable partner in any situation.
