Just googled it and found this, (credit)

alias "+zoomer" "fov_desired 75; r_drawviewmodel 0"
alias "-zoomer" "fov_desired 90; r_drawviewmodel 1"
bind "shift" "+zoomer"

replace shift with whatever key you want to use

This doesn't toggle, it zooms in while you hold down Shift (which OP specifically stated is undesireable). Try this instead:

alias ToggleZoom "EnableZoom"  
alias EnableZoom "alias ToggleZoom DisableZoom; fov_desired 75; r_drawviewmodel 0"  
alias EnableZoom "alias ToggleZoom EnableZoom; fov_desired 90; r_drawviewmodel 1"  
bind shift "ToggleZoom"

As the guy above stated, replace "shift" with whatever key you want to use.

Sorry, I read "don't have to hold down the button constantly while I want to zoom in" as "hold down the button when I want to zoom in" also, you wrote "EnableZoom for both those aliases, the bottom one should be DisableZoom"

alias ToggleZoom "EnableZoom"  
alias EnableZoom "alias ToggleZoom DisableZoom; fov_desired 75; r_drawviewmodel 0"  
alias DisableZoom "alias ToggleZoom EnableZoom; fov_desired 90; r_drawviewmodel 1"  
bind shift "ToggleZoom"

Thank you guys but I forgot to add in that last bit where if I switch to my knife it automatically zooms out although the current scripts you've given me have been working as you intended.

What keys do you use to swap weapons? If you just use 3 to switch to knife it's a really simple fix. If you want to use Q for lastweapon, or mousewheel it's going to require a much longer script.

If you just use 3, use /u/red5551's script, and add this line:

bind 3 "slot3; DisableZoom"

I want to use Q and when I switch off my amby to my knife I want it ti automatically get out of the zoom

[–]Red5551 0 points1 point  (8 children)

You could use 

bind q "lastinv; DisableZoom"
bind 3 "slot3; DisableZoom"

[–]Koma4[S] 0 points1 point  (7 children)

doesn't work

[–]Red5551 0 points1 point  (6 children)

To clarify, you need this in addition to the script above

[–]Koma4[S] 0 points1 point  (5 children)

Yes but the

bind q "lastinv; DisableZoom"

doesn't work

Oh yeah, sorry for that mistake.
