ZEV Technologies Launches Christian Craighead OZ9 Pistol

ZEV Technologies owns an enviable reputation for turning out performance-driven pistol builds. Whether for competition or defense, ZEV pistols flat out perform at a high level. Now the ZEV Christian Craighead OZ9 pistol breaks some truly new ground for ZEV.

ZEV Christian Craighead OZ9

ZEV partnered with SAS veteran Christian Craighead for a signature pistol. It sports a special “Jackal Brown” coating, along with aggressive slide serrations cut at 22 degrees. A custom Craighead logo resides on the port side. Meanwhile, a modified Blackbeard logo adorns the opposing side.

“Team ZEV is more than happy to have collaborated on the Craighead OZ9. You’ll find it’s a unique handgun that not only shoots flat but, is also incredibly accurate and just aesthetically checks all the boxes,” said Dan Groce, Director of Brand Engagement, ZEV Technologies.

A veteran of the legendary SAS, Craighead knows his hardware.

The full release occurs this Wednesday at 5 PM. So we should find out more details then. But what we know about ZEV, it turns out serious hardware based on Glock and SIG firearms. The OZ9 family of pistols, now featuring Combat and Elite lines, brings high-end Glock-style pistols to market, built for high-level competition or professional duty standards.

Bringing in an SAS veteran provides a whole new take on how ZEV goes about turning out serious shooters. At first glance, the Christian Craighead model should stand apart from most other pistols in this field. We’re talking a full-size, optic-ready 9mm machine capable of any mission you throw at it. ZEV has proven time and again that’s what they do. And bringing in even more tactical knowledge into the build should only enhance one of the best in the business.
