ZEV Core Elite

The ZEV Core Elite is a premium semi-automatic rifle chambered in 5.56 NATO, embodying ZEV's dedication to superior design, ergonomics, and performance for serious shooters. Built on precision-machined forged 7075 T6 aluminum receivers with true black hard coat anodize, it features a 16-inch fluted 416R stainless match barrel with bronze PVD coating for sub-MOA accuracy and durability. The integrated Wedge Lock M-LOK handguard ensures aligned top rail continuity, while functional upgrades like ambidextrous controls and enhanced trigger elevate handling in demanding scenarios.

Distinguishing components include a SureFire Warcomp closed-tine flash hider for recoil mitigation and suppressor compatibility, H3 carbine buffer for smooth operation, and ZEV's exclusive sniper gray flat-face AR Gold trigger with 2.5-pound pull for crisp breaks and short reset. The Radian Talon safety, ZEV slide lock charging handle, and Magpul furniture provide intuitive ambidextrous manipulation and customizable fit. These elements combine lightweight strength, corrosion resistance, and modular versatility in a refined black aesthetic.

Ideal for competitive shooting, tactical applications, or precision range work, the Core Elite thrives where reliability, speed, and accuracy are non-negotiable. Its mil-spec foundation with high-end enhancements and included PMAG make it an elite choice for shooters demanding exceptional field or range performance without compromise.
