When Damage Industries says they are going to do something they don’t fool around. Just a few weeks ago they showed us a prototype of a modular forend for the AK and here it is, ready for order.

It fits most AK-47 and AK-74 variants with stamped or milled receivers by replacing the standard handguard and gas tube. It does not mount to barrel and provides a solid mounting platform for optics and accessories. Made in USA using advanced precision manufacturing with Mil-A-8625 Hardcoat Anodized protective finish. Constructed of high-strength aluminum with aerospace alloy gas block insert and heavy duty M4 metric thread fasteners. Adds only 4-6 ounces to weapon depending on type of forearm and gas tube replaced.

System Includes:

*2 detachable side-mounting Mil-Std 1913 Rails (one features a Quick-Detach swivel socket) which can be mounted in various positions
*8 Mounting screws (4 for handguard & gas tube, 2 for each side rail)
*Loc-tite

Offered in Black and Hard Brown. Look for versions to fit Yugo, VEPR and RPK soon as well as additional optic and accessory mounts.
