Magpul MOE AK Handguard Polymer for AK47 AK74 with Heat Shield and M-LOK Slots

The Magpul MAG619-BLK MOE AK Handguard is an exceptional upgrade for your AK47 or AK74, crafted in the USA from reinforced, heat-resistant polymer to ensure durability and performance in demanding conditions. This handguard replaces standard AK pattern handguards that lack a front sling loop on the handguard retainer, providing a sleek and functional design that enhances your rifle's capabilities. It features an integral black oxide coated stainless steel heat shield, strategically designed with slots at the three, six, and nine o'clock positions, allowing for the direct attachment of M-LOK accessories or M-LOK 1913 Picatinny rail sections. The front lip and long side extensions not only shield your hand from the hot barrel but also increase the gripping surface for improved handling. Installation is straightforward, utilizing the existing front handguard retaining cap without a sling loop, although minor fitting may be required due to the typical tolerances of AK rifles. This handguard is compatible with the UltiMAK Optics Mount top cover and accepts the factory cleaning rod, making it a versatile addition to your firearm. Designed specifically for standard stamped receiver AK-47/AKM/AK-74 models, the MOE AK Handguard counts as one US compliance part for 922(r), ensuring you stay within legal parameters while enhancing your shooting experience.
