A friend of mine just bought one (7x57) off of gunbroker. It seems to be a neat little rifle. He is still waiting on the ammo so (we ) have not fired it yet. He is trying to figure out how to break it down and also how to adjust/ regulate the barrels if necessary. It did not come with an owners manual, we can not find one online or through BRNO. Any ideas! Any comments on the rifle itself?

Breakdown is the same as with the zh 100 and zh 200 series combo's that proceeded it - push the button on the hinge pin and take care with the extractor. When you can do assemble and disassemble them without a blood blister you have attained nirvana

If it is like the ZH105, first you remove the screw that holds the extractor in place and slide out the extractor. You don't have to remove the extractor but it gives you a little more leeway in working on the gun. To break down, open the action, remove the extractor, push in the takedown button and pull the barrels straight up. The reassembly flies in the face of all other assembly in that you don't hook the lugs over the pin. You keep the receiver and barrels parallel and slide the action down over the barrels until the receiver touches the takedown pin, push in the pin, and keep pushing the receiver on to the barrels until it closes. I did it a couple times and got better each time. The third time I left the extractor in place and did it just as well.
