Important Notes
The MOE AKM Handguard uses your rifle's existing hand guard retaining cap and works with or without a sling loop. Due to typical AK manufacturing tolerances, minor fitting may be required during installation. This handguard is not compatible with Yugo pattern rifles, RPK-style receivers, or milled receivers. If you own a non-standard AK variant, verify compatibility before purchase.
