Magpul MOE AK Hand Guard, AK-47/74, FDE

The Magpul MOE AK Hand Guard in Flat Dark Earth (brand part no. MAG619-FDE) is a direct replacement for the original stamped-receiver wooden or plastic hand guards found on AK-47, AKM, and AK-74 pattern rifles. Magpul engineers this hand guard to install using your existing front hand guard retaining cap, and it adds M-LOK slots at the three, six, and nine o’clock positions so you can mount direct-attach M-LOK accessories or M-LOK Picatinny rail sections exactly where you want them. Reinforced, heat-resistant polymer construction stands up to barrel heat, backed by an integral black-oxide coated stainless steel heat shield with a front lip and long side extensions that protect your support hand while adding gripping surface. The package includes a replacement polymer top cover that is compatible with the UltiMAK Optics Mount and still accepts a factory cleaning rod.
