The ZK-420S is a rare Czech battle rifle designed by the Koucký brothers, featuring a detachable magazine and chambered in 8mm Mauser. Its design, influenced by the M1 Garand's trigger group and sharing bolt characteristics with the M1 and AK-47, underwent trials internationally post-WWII. Despite positive testing, high manufacturing costs prevented adoption, though the presenter argues it surpasses the M14 in ergonomics and maintenance.
