Reviews & Ratings for AIM Sports Inc Yugo AK Keymod Handguard — 5 reviews — Page 1

It’s slim and light. My yugo m70 needed a upgraded for hunting. Bipod and rifle light and scope mount.

I bought this for my zastava m90np, and so far love it. I won't lie it does have some cons though. Pros: lightweight, modular, looks nice, more room for gripping, can be run without the upper handguard. Cons: really theres only two cons 1) the barrel clamp screws are very short so make sure you only screw them in a little till all are attached....then tighten them down. 2) there is no receiver plate so this mount relies solely on cranking the barrel mounts down, hence I left my oem upper handguard on. To be honest you could probably cut a thin strip of metal and wedge it into the receiver then bolt it to the first bottom keymod slot to insure no movement and true alignment

I purchased this rail to fit a Zastava M-70 N-PAP rifle. If you’ve watched AIM Sport’s installation video for their AK rails, for every other version of AK there is a block that goes into the receiver which keeps the rail from rotating. The Yugo version, for whatever reason, has no such block. Because the rail attaches to neither the receiver/trunnion nor the front HG retainer, the only way to keep it from slipping and rotating is to clamp it with immense force to the barrel. If I’d realized that the Yugo version lacked this obvious solution to the issue of rotation, I’d probably not have purchased it. Yugo AK owners often get the short end of the stick, and this rail is unfortunately no exception. I wrote AIM and asked them if perhaps my rail was simply just missing a piece. They told me that “it appears the trunnion part is missing” and that they’d send out such a part when it’s available. That was over 3 months ago, they’ve neither sent a part nor written. I assume there is no such part (there are no screw holes in the rail where a trunnion mount could attach) and I also assume that the CS representative didn’t know that their Yugo rail lacks this necessary piece.
