ORSIS (Russian: ОРСИС, from ОРужейные СИСтемы, "Weapon Systems") is the trading name of Promtechnology (Russian: Промтехнология) Group based in Moscow, Russia. Specialising in the manufacture of centrefire rifles designed for a variety of military and civilian applications, ORSIS was founded in 2011 and is currently privately owned.

The company launched with the T-5000 tactical rifle, before releasing a number of civilian derivatives for both hunting and long range target shooting. The company is able to produce entire rifles, including stocks, actions and barrels, as well as being able to produce replacement barrels for third party firearms. Its products are produced at the factory of the "Promtekhnologia" company located in Moscow.

Alongside their centre-fire product line, development of a rimfire rifle for IBU Biathlon competition took place between 2011 and 2013 with the resulting rifle demonstrated to coaches and athletes in December 2013.[2] Rimfire hunting rifles are also planned as derivatives of this system.
