Samson AK47 M-LOK K-Rail Sling Loop - Tactical Attachment for AK Rifles
Samson Manufacturing
The Samson AK47 M-LOK K-Rail with QD Mount is a modern tactical handguard designed to bring your stamped AK platform into the 21st century of modularity and ergonomics. Built from 6061-T6 aluminum with a Type III class 2 hardcoat anodize finish, this handguard transforms your rifle's mounting capability without requiring gunsmithing or removal of the factory lower handguard retainer. It's the practical solution for AK shooters who want rail-mounted accessories, better ergonomics, and attachment options—all with a straightforward installation process.
The K-Rail features five-sided M-LOK slots, including dedicated top-rail M-LOK real estate for optics and accessories. The extended handguard geometry shields your hand from the barrel while creating enough real estate for modern tactical gear. An adjustable alignment system with twistable wedges lets you dial in the handguard's rotation for a perfect fit to your rifle, and the extended lip index point serves as a tactile reminder to keep your thumb clear of the gas tube. Recessed screw design prevents accidental burns during shooting or maintenance.
Samson offers this K-Rail in two configurations: a version with a sling loop cutout for traditional attachment, and the QD Mount variant featured here, which integrates ambidextrous quick-detach points for modern sling systems. Both versions work with factory gas tubes and are compatible with aftermarket gas tube rails. Fit is generally direct on most stamped AKM rifles, though minor fitment or filing may be needed depending on your specific platform.
