The CRC 1U043 by Ukrainian brand KPYK is an ultra-compact, lightweight, and extremely durable handguard designed specifically for AKS-74U carbines. It combines ergonomic design, high functionality, and modern styling, significantly expanding your firearm's tactical options without adding unnecessary weight.

Key Features and Benefits

• Maximum Reliability & Protection: The rigid octagonal structure with internal reinforcing ribs provides reliable protection for the barrel against damage and resists heavy operational stress.

• Premium Materials: CNC-machined from 6082-T66 aviation-grade aluminum alloy. Coated with Cerakote ceramic paint, offering superior resistance to corrosion, scratches, and extreme heat.

• Versatile Mounting Interfaces:

  • M-LOK slots on three sides (bottom, left, right) for quick attachment of foregrips, flashlights, lasers, or pressure switches.

  • Top Picatinny rail for mounting red dot sights and additional optics or accessories.

• Easy Installation (Plug & Play): Mounts directly onto factory retention points. Requires no gunsmithing or permanent modifications to the carbine.

• Modular Design: Consists of two separate pieces (lower handguard and gas tube cover). The lower section can be used independently if preferred.

• Flexible Compatibility: Fully compatible with both the stock AKS-74U gas tube and aftermarket alternatives.
