Awesome that the furniture is OTW, just sucks that the M3 AK Pmags are pushed back by a few months and WILL NOT be shippig with the Furniture.
Not sure if a statement was made on here by a Magpul rep about it or not, I found out via email with Magpul. Well, the only good side to it is that they are apparently doing even more to make the magazine "The Best" that they possibly can so hopefully it'll be superior when finally released. It's Likely STILL in R&D stages. |

The places to attach lights and sling mounts are gonna get used fo' sho'. Maybe a VFG too (we'll see how the ergos are for activating the light). Installation was a bit of a pain. If any of you alls get one then tighten the four long screws that attach the heat shield to the barrel just enough to hold it in place but make sure that it can still slide back and forth a bit. Then install the plastic cover and make sure that it lines up correctly. Finally, get at the mounting screws through the holes in the bottom of the hand guard with your Allen wrench once the plastic cover and the heat shield are properly aligned. Haven't shot with it yet, but I'll correct that on Saturday. Awesome! Can't wait to see more pictures/videos of unboxing all magpul stuff on internet so that'll help us understand what you were talking about. |

I work for a Magpul dealer and as soon as I learned about the Zhukov handguard I made sure to pre-order one. I imagine they will be in stores soon.
I should do a vid or pics of how to assemble it; I just threw it together as soon as it showed up 'cause I was too excited to wait! 
I've got a busy weekend but I'll see if I can fit that in somehow. |

Where's the plum at?.... Still waiting on somebody to get theirs to see the color difference between Kvars Plum and magpuls.
I only want the Zhukov folding stock, not a fan of the other stuff. But a folder I'll take anyday! If it can fold, I'll take it..... I prefer a rifle/sbr that can fold for transport |

All I got today was black. I haven't messed with the hand guards as that is the lowest priority, but the stock rocks.
All the way in, it is just a fraction of a hair shorter than the other M4 style collapsible stocks are when all the way in. |

The short handguard is a little to short for me and the long one a bit to long for my 13" project....is it possible to cut the HG or will it effect the attachment of the HG?

The exception being the new Century C39V2, while it is a milled receiver it is demensionally the same as a stamped AK where the buttstock attaches. |

Does anyone have any suggestions about where to find the Zhukov stock in Stealth Gray online? I have seen at least one site with Black available, but not Stealth Gray. I have tried Brownell's, Midway, PSA, DSG, and Primary Arms. I suppose it's just a question of time, but I'm impatient. Kind of wish I hadn't bought a MOE grip in Stealth Gray already.

I really like the MOE handguard. It is longer than the standard Hanguard. It would have been great if the longer Zhukov extended Hangard would work with the existing Hangard retainer. I would have considered this instead of the MOE Hangard. It is not a good option for me to cut off the handguard retainer.

I can't for the life of me get the moe akm handguard to fit on my Bulgarian Arsenal SLR107FR. Seems seems like the heat shield and protruding dimples get in the way and won't allow the bottom handguard sit into the receiver. The barrel is thicker towards the receiver due to the rear sight block / trunnion holding on to the barrel in that area.
Are these compatible with Bulgarian Arsenal stamped AKs? |

I installed one on a slr106 today and it seemed to get caught up at first but was able to get it to slide on. Just keep trying it'll go. The one thing I did have to do was Dremel a little off the upper ends of the hand guard that fits into the retainer as the were too long to slide in. |

Just got mine installed on my 5.45 Saiga. Installation was very straight forward and solid. I will echo what others have said that it is a great feeling hand guard and I'm absolutely happy with my purchase. Nothing rivals it for the $84 I got it for. Here is a pic...magpul stock and conversion to come. I was going to swap out the gas tube for an AK74 one, but this handguard looks clean with the Saiga tube IMO.

Here are a few of my maroon hand guard. Someone was asking about the color.. For reference, my rifle is only parkerized, so it's more grey than black. Picked it up from DSG yesterday. Great people. My rifle already had an Ultimak on it, so I had to remove it to fit the upper hand guard clamps, then reinstall. I left everything fairly loose, then tightened it all down together. Fits fine with the Bolton gas block. DSG had every color hand guard, only black on the stock, and no MOE stocks yet. Not sure about the light placement. Probably will need an M-LOK rail piece to move it further forward.

I just put the Zhukov stock on my Mak90. It seems the rear of my reciever isn't completely square so I took a sawzall blade to it by hand so the mount would set deeper and the screws line up with the tang holes.
This thing looks a LOT like a children's ski boot when folded. Kind of comical really. ETA: sawsall blade used on the plastic of the stock,not the reciever. |
