Zhukov Extended Handguard for Yugo M70 NPAP
I purchased this extended hand guard thinking it would fit my Yugo M70 NPAP. I was wrong. However, I liked the quality of the Magpul Zhukov so much that I made it work on my Yugo. It can be done with a little dremel work to the aluminum frame and the flanges on the metal piston assembly. The piston housing cover that comes with the hand guard will not work with a Yugo as it is too short. However, the lower hand guard will work fine with the original or aftermarket piston covers. I shot the Yugo with stock in place for 60 rounds with nothing vibrating loose. This is my favorite set up fo...

Magpul Zhukov extended handguard
Nice fit and finish, ads a modern look and feel to an old gun. With the Zhukov stock she looks great. Now for a few Buba accessories, and TWS rail. 1 drawback, you got to cut lower handguard retainer off.
Would recommend: Yes
Must be modified for a norinco mak 90 sporter
Will fit but you must dremel out a good bit of polymer from the underside where it abuts the receiver
Would recommend: Yes
Beautiful and Sturdy
Wonderful handguard for my ak, it's sturdy and slick-looking. Just be ready cause it ain't light. One thing to note, however, if your ak has a front sling mount built onto the barrel you will have to get a dremel and lob it off.
Would recommend: Yes
Longer handgaurd option
At the end of the installation, the look is great. There were some minor annoyances with getting to that stage however.
Yes, if you have a traditional handgaurd and sling point, youll be taking a dremmel to your AK.
I had to trim some of the inner heatshield to accommodate the gas tube when reinstalling.
BUT outside of those small things this is a very comfortable handguard with ample room to add rail segments.

Zhukov Extended Handguard Well Made for the AK47/AK74
First and foremost, I’m very happy with my purchase of this extended handguard made my Magpul. Installation was bit challenging if you don’t have a dremel tool. But if you’re a handyman you can install this with ease. Yes you will have to do some modification on your barrel, before you even try to purchase this, I recommend you watching YouTube videos just so you can familiarize yourself and get the hang of it. But once it’s installed, your AK47 will definitely feel like a new rifle. All I can say Magpul always excels on their products two thumbs up.
Pros:
- Durability and Quality
Cons:
- modification required
Best Used for:
- Home defense
Would recommend: Yes

High Quality
Perfect fit for my WASR-3. Makes it look like it is worth something! The long hand guard has a finely finished aluminum heat shield that bolts to the barrel and fits snugly. You will be glad you did.

Cons:
- None
Best Used for:
- AK's
Would recommend: Yes
fits like a gloves
I was tired of the old pic rails I had on my Ak so after some research I found this rail system. I love everything about it. The hardest part was cutting the sling point off. But with all that being said I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a Ak upgrade.
Would recommend: Yes
“slight” fitting required
Well I purchased a century VSKA on a whim back in July of 2019, when shooting it I noticed that the hand guard got too hot to hold.... at least for me. My solution was the magpul Zhukov extended handguard in the Plum coloration. Having never owned an AK platform and doing little reading prior to purchasing one I assumed it was going to be easy to switch out the old one and put in this new one. That was not the case. I had to cut off the “dog collar” for the original forend, then cut the sling loop off the gas block, and finally I had to cut out a portion of the aluminum bedding block to make it all fit together. All together though it was much worth it, it’s very rugged and aesthetically pleasing. I will say though, my life is changing, I used to be an AR fanboy, now days I hang out in a green and red Adidas track suit with cheap smokes and vodka.
Pros:
- Keeps your hand from burning on the gas block
Cons:
- not easy to install
Would recommend: Yes
