The Magpul Zhukov-U Handguard for AK Variants Except Yugo Pattern Rifles or RPK Style Receivers, Polymer Construction, Integrated Heat Shield, M-LOK is a handguard that fits AK Variants Except Yugo Pattern Rifles or RPK Style Receivers, offered in Black, Flat Dark Earth.
The Zhukov-U Hand Guard shaves off 1.5" from the original Zhukov AK Hand Guard to accommodate shorter barreled rifles and pistols, and keeps the front end of full length rifles a little more lively. The shorter version also allows Magpul to accommodate the military issue cleaning rods, so you don't have to give that up to get the benefits of the Zhukov anymore! The Zhukov-U shares the same type of sturdy aluminum chassis as the longer standard Zhukov for strength and heat mitigation sheathed in a comfortable, injection molded exterior for superior ergonomics. The Zhukov-U includes M-LOK slots for accessory attachment, and is fully compatible with the UltiMAK gas tube rail. Installation requires removing handguard retainer. Made in U.S.A. Hand Guard counts as one US compliance part for 922(r).
A handguard protects your support hand from barrel heat and gives you room to mount lights, grips and other accessories. Check the length and fitting type against your rifle — drop-in handguards fit between the delta ring and handguard cap, while free-float handguards use their own barrel nut.
