Yugo M72B1 Handguard Set – No Ferrule Needed

Please read – these are pre-orders that reflect the number I will cast and not the number ready to ship. 

This is our Yugo M72B1 RPK handguard set (both the lower and the upper).  It is cast in our high-temp glass fiber reinforced plastic and it will not require a ferrule because the M72 ferrules are unique, you will not find them anywhere and our plastic doesn’t really need them so we eliminated them.

These handguards will require fitting.  Do not buy this set if you aren’t comfortable with this – it is not a drop-in part.  The plastic is like a hardwood – it doesn’t give or bend – it will crack under point loads.  You need to sand or file the upper and lower so they fit square and snug.  If you do that, they will last and last – just don’t try to force them into place.  The key is to be patient – remove a little and test fit over and over until each part goes on.

Please note that these are for the M72B1 stamped receiver version of the rfile and will not fit the older M72 milled receiver model. (I really appreciate the help of a very patient customer who took the time to send me photos of the differences.)

This set is colored black and is in our blasted matte finish for a sure grip.

Total weight is about 6.2 ounces.

Because we are using a thick original wood handguard as our master, our plastic will be very well positioned to handle heat.  In general, the thicker the walls, the better.

We do not drill the cleaning rod hole.  This is something you will need to do if you want it.

This is a pre-order.  The available quantity is how many more I plan to make.  I will finish and mail a grip 2-4 weeks after you place an order.   If you change your mind you can cancel and get a full refund any time before your order is mailed.
