ZEV O.Z-9C 9mm Compact Striker-Fired Pistol, 4.02 in Dimpled/Fluted Stainless Barrel, Optics-Cut Slide, 15+1
The ZEV O.Z-9C is a compact, modular 9mm built around a full-length steel internal receiver for rigidity and consistency. This example features a match-grade dimpled and fluted stainless barrel, an optics-cut slide with cover plate installed, and fiber-optic/black iron sights. It accepts Glock-pattern magazines and many parts, and is made in Centralia, Washington, USA.
The polymer grip module wraps the steel chassis and wears wrap-around stippling with ZEV medallion inlays for a secure hold. Upgraded controls include a flat-faced trigger with a safety tab and a textured magazine release. An integral accessory rail and refined slide milling round out a feature-rich compact platform.

The O.Z-9C's modular design centers on a full-length steel internal receiver that serves as the serialized component. This architecture provides a stable foundation for the slide and barrel, and allows the removable polymer grip module to be swapped as needed.
The slide is finished in black with front and rear diagonal serrations and top relief cuts. It arrives optics-cut with a cover plate installed, giving you a streamlined configuration out of the box. The 4.02-inch match-grade stainless barrel is both dimpled and fluted.
Sight alignment is fast with the fiber-optic front blade (orange rod) paired to a black serrated rear in a dovetail. The flat-faced trigger with a safety tab, striker-fired action, and trigger safety provide a consistent, familiar interface.
Controls and ergonomics include a textured magazine release and wrap-around stippling with ZEV medallion inlays for grip. An integral accessory rail is built into the frame. The pistol is chambered in 9mm Luger with a 15+1 capacity and accepts Glock-pattern magazines and many parts.
Manufactured in the United States, in Centralia, Washington, this compact model delivers ZEV's signature fit and finish with a robust internal steel receiver, polymer grip module, and black-finished slide and frame components.
