The CZ Scorpion is one of the most iconic firearms ever created. The original design dates back to the 1960s and was developed by Miroslav Rybar in 1959. The first generation of Skorpion rifles was produced from 1963 to 1979 under the official name Skorpion vz. 61. Since then, the gun has undergone many changes and improvements to evolve into the modern CZ Scorpion as we know it. A modern-day CZ Scorpion is an SMG platform in 9mm and 22 LR, available in a carbine, pistol, and micro pistol configuration. The official platform designation is the Scorpion EVO 3, marking the third generation of the CZ's line of this popular submachine gun, followed by the markings A or S, denoting the military or civilian version, where S1 or S2 are civilian versions that differ from the A version by lacking the select-fire option and being a semi-automatic one. The CZ Scorpion is a blowback-operated platform in the 9mm caliber, featuring a modular design easily customizable with aftermarket parts and accessories, a lightweight and durable, fiber-reinforced polymer frame with improved ergonomics, M-LOK compatibility for mounting optical sights, threaded barrels for attaching suppressors and other muzzle devices, adjustable stocks or braces, adjustable sights, a corrosion-resistant finish, ambidextrous safety, and detachable magazines with up to 20 rounds in capacity. Since the inception of the EVO S1 platform in 2014, the CZ Scorpion has evolved even more and is also available in the next-generation versions, which include the Scorpion EVO 3 S2 Micro and the latest Scorpion EVO 3 Plus series, i.e., Scorpion EVO 3 + in a micro pistol, pistol, and carbine configuration. Thanks to its reliability, flexibility, and constant improvements, the CZ Scorpion SMG is a top-notch firearm perfect for home defense, CQB, or tactical purposes, ideal for beginners and more advanced shooters who like a lot of great features on their weapon of choice.
