ZEV Technologies, in collaboration with Field Ethos, has launched the Santeria Hypercomp, a 9mm handgun featuring a ported island barrel for improved stability and a solid steel magwell. It combines the compact OZ9 V2 receiver with an X grip for enhanced control, aesthetics, and functionality without added weight, making it suitable for both performance and display.
ZEV Technologies state “Meet the Santeria. Built upon the foundation of our flagship pistol the Hypercomp, this special piece has got some stories to tell, just like our friends at Field Ethos. The Hypercomp is chambered in 9mm and features our ported island barrel which helps keep the gun flat and on target. The magwell is cut from solid steel adding some extra heft to the black polymer grip. We chose titanium nitride as the coating for the barrel, frame, and magwell for those who want a gun that looks as good as it shoots. The subtle, custom FE engraving pushes this over the edge aesthetically and helps identify it as something to take notice of. The folks at Field Ethos are no strangers to running the best gear out there which is why they chose Zev to be their partner on this one of a kind handgun. Whether you’re looking to run it fast and loose at the range or just use it as a trophy to show off to your boys, the Santeria won’t disappoint.”
KEY DETAILS:
- The OZ9 V2 Hypercomp X brings the benefits of a compensator to the popular compact platform without adding any extra length or mass. The Hypercomp features four tapered vertical ports integrated into the top of the barrel that vents gases upward to reduce muzzle rise, creating one of the flattest shooting compacts available. – The OZ9 V2 Hypercomp X combines the compact OZ9 V2 receiver and a full size X grip to create a pistol that is easier to control and handle than the OZ9 V2 Compact without added weight or length.
- The patented Steel Receiver runs the length of the entire pistol allowing the locking block to be fully integrated. Having a singular component for the slide to travel along minimizes vibration and recoil energy by dispersing it along the receiver through the custom grip.
- A single take-down pin conveniently located at the front of the trigger guard locks the removable grip to the steel receiver.
- By design, the trigger is housed in the steel receiver. This allows for future grip upgrades without completely breaking down the pistol. Our improved grips have steeper angles and forward hand position which keeps the muzzle down and pointing straighter
- The slide features ZEV’s patented RMR cut which enables the installation of red dot sights using an RMR footprint. The RMR posts are integrated into the slide, making for a more secure attachment for your optic.
