Considerations
Zaviar Firearms produced rifles in several configurations, so features such as barrel profile, twist rate, furniture, and muzzle device may differ.
Because many Z-15 rifles were assembled with components from various suppliers, individual configurations can vary significantly. Community reports also show examples of rifles built with components from other manufacturers, so identifying the exact configuration is important when determining specifications or value.
