Hi all, can anyone confirm does the Zenit B19 / B19n fit the AKS74U?

Obv with the B11.

Depends on the brand. E&L? No not without a fair bit of modification.

Hell, I had to file down my LCT clone B11 to fit my LCT! And this was after screwing up a real steel one (got it to fit solid but messed up the alignment for the B19N 😅)

Especially the E&L as it's handguard is an extra 1/2 to 1 inch longer on the AKS74U then any other brand!

afaik isn't the e&l meant to be closer to RS spec than the other versions?

 

as i've mentioned before the rule with ak's is "if it don't fit imma make it fit"

I thought that was the case with the stocks. They use the larger pins like the RS stuff. 

 

The E&L handguard is longer then even the RS to fit in all the gubbinz I believe, But what gubbinz that is, is anyone guess. 

 

E&L are also great at replicating RS "knackered alignment" of the front sight with the receiver/rear sight. All three of mine are off. Deploying the hammer to the AKS74U and a buttload of retention compound to massage it into the right place on Thursday.

I was looking to fit em on an E&L one, can anyone confirm - are they actually longer?

Il be using a RS Zen B11.

 

I appreciate they all need “tuning” but you can’t mak a hand guard longer! 🙈

not sure on the sidefolders, the only ones i've met that had RS stocks on them were pt5's on standard trunnion

 

i know their full length ak's fit the rs handguards with very little tweaking  but i've not tried it on one of their u's, but granted they are longer than cyma/jg handguards.

They are definitely longer on an E&L AKS74U. You can get the E&L specific 83U style handguard. I think Begadi has them.

Cheers for that 👍
