History
[edit | edit source]Zbroyar was founded in 2007 as a specialized small-scale production of high-precision sports and hunting rifles. The company became famous thanks to its Z-008 sniper rifle, on the basis of which military models were developed, which in some respects surpassed more expensive foreign counterparts.[1]
The company started its business with a small fleet of machines on leased areas of the Kyiv Radio Plant. In 2013, the production was reorganized and technically modernized. As a result, specialists with experience in the defense and aerospace industries joined, and their employees increased to more than 80 people.
Recognition
[edit | edit source]The Ukrainian Z-008 rifle team won second place at the European F-Class Championships in 2011 and 2012.[2][3]
