Zev Technologies OZ9C Hyper Comp X Grip Tabletop Review and Field Strip

[@jack1etreehorn286]

Best table top reviews on KZbin! Very informative and always interesting. I've considered making the purchase for a Zev hypercomp v2 x grip and am now convinced I should

[@GBGuns]

Thank you. Zev didn't appreciate it and wanted the gun back.

[@WaterZer0]

My favorite part about gun laws is they never apply to the police who have shown time and time again are no better trained than the average shooter and often times much worse.

[@scaleworksRC]

Nobody ever wants to talk about that one

[@steemerxaxon1643]

Always IGNOR tyrannical gun Laws!!! THIS IS AMERICA!!! F... THE TYRANTS!!!

[@jbarres80]

I was part of a LE training class last yr and was blown away how bad they shot and didn’t even care. I realized that I can’t depend on Le to save me so I’ve been training and learning from everyone I can it’s scary to think le don’t train they just punch in and punch out

[@VETVSS]

That's quite a large assertion for a large group of people.

[@cw7631]

I love the look of the unique barrel! I have a g19 and g45 clone, but that OZ is amazing. Wish the price was lower to get into one.

[@azvoltmanphoenix446]

Thanks for the no nonsense tabletop G.B....... I for one think this gun is worth the moeny. Cant wait for your range time with this beauty......

[@GBGuns]

We filmed this a month ago but haven't been able to get to the range with it yet and it's killing me! Stupid weather and range closures! We have time this weekend but with 1/2" of ice on the roads and freezing rain there's no way we're heading up and down curvy hills to hit the range this weekend :(

[@ShahinAmerian]

Basically I'm not a such kind of handguns' fan , but the image you showed was unbelievable that how flat this one could be. have a good holiday and waiting for shooting impression .

[@TheSprinklerNinja]

1800 for a glock?(Fudd gene activate) am I getting old? The case is nice though when you lose it in a boating accident it will keep the gun dry

[@bfish9700]

I love the oz9 frame (I have one with a couple 34 slides). I actually really like the SCT frame just as much. I'd like to see someone make a glock frame like the 365 macro. I have a micro comp on a 19 slide that seems to work ok. If zev was to come out with a 48x that took shield arms mags, I'd buy the frame in a heartbeat (the 19 is a bit too thick for my wife).

[@seanhudson7549]

Might give Shadow Systems a run for their money. Another great table top, thanks Graham!

[@GBGuns]

Interestingly enough Shadow Systems was interested in being on the channel, then backed out. Maybe it was their barrel issues.

[@falconcowboy9995]

I like the modularity of the frame And the ported cut out slide/front sight post 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

[@georgekirby3361]

Yea that’s a cool picture

[@GBGuns]

I think it demonstrates well just how flat this pistol can be. We'll have a better idea when we put it through our range tests.

[@shawnmrfixitlee6478]

Wow, way better than a Glock .. Santa can bring one to me this year ! can't wait for some range impressions . We are out of the cold .Now it's going to rain forever! Enjoyed & Merry Christmas to you and your families ! 👍👍

[@TheOutside84]

Wa state is getting wild with this b.s. I live here, they're going to try a assault weapon ban now too.

[@ramzankadyrov6035]

If you need ports to keep a 9mm flat then you need to work on your grip. I could understand it on a 10mm.

[@ratagris21]

Remember magna porting is making a comeback now known as a compensators.

[@angelobustillos601]

I love mine! Everyone that I know complains about the price….until they shoot it. Now they all want one!

[@Dbltap22]

What is the diameter of the ports? They look huge. I would like to compare the area to my ported barrel.

[@albertmasella4385]

Great comprehensive review. I have the shadow systems DR920 Elite, not sure if you shot that one, but if so, curious how it compares?

[@GBGuns]

I have,but only at a demo. Shadow Systems originally was going to send something for review, then withdrew when they had the barrel issues and never restarted contact.

[@Greenmachine305]

Nice. I wonder how it compares to a comped MR920.

[@GBGuns]

We may never know. Shadow Systems backed out of being on our channel.

[@Greenmachine305]

@@GBGuns The truth hurts.

[@GBGuns]

Over the years I've come to grow suspicious of compa ies who do not want to be on the channel. We treat every firearm equally, and dive as deeply as we need to to u dersrand design intent and performance. When a company prefers channels that make everything look "cool" or creates montages without really showing anything... that tells me the guns may not be all they're hyped to be.

[@jbarres80]

Where are you located if your in Texas I’ll let ya use mine for video

[@ThePatriotQuya]

Is it worth every penny? Performance, consistency, reliability, flat shooter?

I love my ported slides & barrels. Good 5 out of 20.

What do you mean by "5 out of 20"?

“Do not look into the ports when firing.” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I wanna know who caused that to be a written warning. Lmfao

So, the comped part still has rifling? And the barrel itself is like 1.5 inches?

[@somebrains5431]

Zev is missing out selling this slide and barrel combo. Radian doesn’t have their comp out for gen3 yet. Not everyone wants to buy a new holster. The island comp barrel isn’t new, I saw it on 1911s 25-30 years ago.

[@Edc-Guy]

Radian may be sold out but the g3 comp has been out for awhile now.

[@Edc-Guy]

I agree they should sell as stand alone. I just did Zev build with arc slide and barrel. Shoots great and flat as well.

[@billyboyd418]

They have it listed on their website for $1100

[@jbarres80]

Think I want this just don’t wanna pay 1800 I’m currently running Shadow Systems which I feel is the middle ground of Zev being top and Glock being bottom Also heard the owners of SS use to be engineers at Zev

[@3wheelmannc860]

Very nice design. Thanks for sharing. Can you mention your experience with 1) Velocity with this type barrel design since the ports are "seemingly" shortening the norm of a G19 barrel ability when other ports are farther out and 2) Visibility of front sight picture when firing, due to porting placement and gases etc escaping with this placement over other comps that are out front of the sight.

[@GBGuns]

We'll cover that in the range video

[@iNostos]

Would those top ports on the barrel affect powder burn and, if so, how?

[@GBGuns]

There may he powder that doesn't finish burning by the time the bullet passes the first port, but pistol powder burns pretty quickly. The interesting test will be to see how much velocity is lost.

[@iNostos]

@@GBGuns Really appreciate the quick reply, Graham! Merry Christmas to you, Tia(sp?) & your family! Looking forward to the shooting impressions vid!

[@WvMnts]

Any idea how much fps loss them ports are? I love flat but like fps as well

[@GBGuns]

Yes wecover that in the Shooting Impressions video releasing soon.

[@WaterZer0]

That slide release seems like it might be hard to hit. I hope you try it in the range video!

[@GBGuns]

I always use slide release only, unless it's one of those guns with a lock-only function.

[@texas66]

If Glock had created that trigger module for the military trials Sig may have lost.....

[@Greenmachine305]

Glock wouldn't do that because as they like to tell us, thier firearms are perfect already.

[@321mydestiny]

If I install RMR optic, since you said the manual doesn’t give information on the optic cut what’s the torque pounds?

[@juliovaldes1377]

What would happen if debris fell through them holes on the the Barrel? I guess this gun wouldn’t do to good in dirt..

[@RedEyePergo]

Cant remeber if you chronograph in shooting impressions. But I'm curious to see how much gas is robbed from all those ports and what the effect is on velocity. Gonna be a hell of a fire ball with nato loads

[@GBGuns]

We run the chrono when there's something worth testing. I'm curious too on this one.

[@Astronaut_Bear]

Handguns like this you won't find in a local shop, you've got to order it. It's such a niche product that it's a big risk for a shop to lay down the capital for hoping someone buys.

@@GBGuns - I’ve not tried a Zev, mostly because the features don’t justify the cost of it. I love my Bul Armory SAS Ultra II and my Grand Power X-Caliber. My Tanfoglio, although larger than the Zev, would outshoot it any day of the week and is still $300-400 less.
