Some ZI-DI system poor pictures.
You can look here at an original sample as well at the mechanism on which I work in lost time.
Originally the caliber is 5.6x35R Vierling.
The action, although fine and compact, is oversized for this cartridge. The manufacturing quality is both ingenious and remarkable because nothing has been overlooked. The whole appears to be entirely machined from forged blanks, a tradition typical of the Thuringia metallurgical basin where Suhl and Zella-Melhis are located.
On the version that is the basis for our project the action has been trued and modified.
The new ERA single stage trigger made possible a lighter let off and much faster striking.
I used a false barrel to control .22 Hornet rounds loading and ejection.
It's interesting to note that the ingenious mechanism of the clip served as a model for the one used later by J.G Anschutz on his own .22 Hornet rifles, the two being very close.
Being a long-term project I will try to keep you updated on the progress of the work because what you see is only a test starting point.

Regards to all.
