Magpul ZHUKOV-S Folding Stock for AK-Platform - Flat Dark Earth (MAG585-FDE)

The Magpul ZHUKOV-S folding stock for AK-platform rifles transforms one of the platform's most compromised ergonomics into a genuinely modern, user-friendly interface. If you've run a traditional AK furniture and found yourself wishing for adjustability, modularity, and the ability to collapse your rifle for storage or transport, the Zhukov-S delivers on all three fronts without requiring permanent modifications to your receiver.

Magpul engineered this AK folding stock around the real frustrations shooters face: fixed cheekweld height, limited length-of-pull options, and stocks that either rattle or require gunsmithing to fit. The Zhukov-S uses a clever wedge-block design that fits most common stamped AK receivers without alteration, folds to the right side to keep the sight plane clear when you run side-mounted optics, and collapses to five distinct positions so you can dial in your optimal length. The adjustment lever sits low and snag-free, and the internal lock mechanism is built stout—this isn't a flimsy folder.

Construction is injection-molded polymer reinforced where it counts, with a solid steel hinge pin anchoring the fold and a shock-absorbing rubber butt-pad that won't slip on your shoulder or your gear. The design also ships with modular cheek-riser hardware, so you can tailor your sight picture without aftermarket pads. Quick-detach sling mounts are integrated, and the stock qualifies as a US compliance part under 922(r) for those building within federal guidelines.

Available in Flat Dark Earth, the Zhukov-S is made in the USA and brings AK ergonomics into the modern era—no gunsmithing, no permanent commitment, and no compromise on build quality.

Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the Zhukov-S fit my AK without gunsmithing?

The Zhukov-S uses a unique wedge-block design to fit most common stamped AK receivers without modification. However, compatibility can vary depending on your specific receiver type and condition. We recommend checking Magpul's detailed compatibility information or consulting with a gunsmith if you have doubts about your particular platform.

Can I use this folding stock if I have a side-mounted scope or red dot?

Yes. The Zhukov-S folds to the right side, which preserves clearance for optics mounted on the side rail. This is one of its key design advantages over traditional AK folders.

Is the cheek riser height adjustable?

The Zhukov-S ships with modular cheek-riser hardware, allowing you to adjust cheekweld height to match your optic and shooting position. This modularity is a major upgrade over fixed AK stocks.

What's included in the package?
