Description

ZEV Tech Small Skeletonized V4 Striker

The ZEV Skeletonized Striker (Small) for 9mm, .40 S&W, and .357 SIG is a precision-engineered aftermarket component designed to enhance the performance characteristics of striker-fired pistols by reducing unnecessary mass in the firing system. ZEV Skeletonization Striker removes excess material from the striker while maintaining structural integrity, which can result in a faster lock time—the interval between the trigger break and primer impact. This reduction in lock time can translate into improved shot consistency and a more refined shooting experience, especially in competitive or high-performance shooting environments where efficiency and repeatability matter.

In addition to ZEV Skeletonized Striker potential improvements in lock time, a lighter striker can subtly influence overall trigger feel. When paired correctly with compatible ZEV Skeletonized Striker springs and other fire-control components, users may experience a cleaner break and more predictable reset. However, these benefits depend heavily on proper tuning, as overly aggressive weight reduction or mismatched spring combinations can negatively affect ignition reliability. For this reason, skeletonized strikers are often installed as part of a broader trigger or performance upgrade rather than as a standalone modification.

Compatibility is a critical consideration with the ZEV Skeletonized Striker, as striker dimensions, engagement surfaces, and spring interfaces vary by firearm manufacturer, model, and generation. Although the striker is intended for pistols chambered in 9mm, .40 S&W, and .357 SIG, this caliber grouping typically corresponds to specific slide and striker assemblies, meaning that not all pistols within those calibers will accept the same component. Verifying exact model and generation compatibility is essential to ensure safe and proper function.
