Whether you’re building a defensive carbine, a training rifle, or a range-ready blaster, the DLG-133 adds secure attachment points for lights, grips, indexers, and sling hardware without the bulk or weight of metal rails.
Why Choose the DLG-133 for Your AK
True M-LOK Compatibility: Add mission-critical accessories exactly where you want them—3, 6, and 9 o’clock—with rock-solid M-LOK attachment.
Lightweight Polymer Build: Reinforced polymer cuts ounces off the front end for faster target transitions and less fatigue during long sessions.
Heat-Resistant, Duty-Ready: Engineered to handle sustained strings of fire; vented geometry promotes airflow and helps manage barrel heat.
Slim, Ergonomic Profile: Flat sides and subtle indexing create a comfortable C-clamp or thumb-over-bore grip without hot spots.
Clean, Low-Glare Black Finish: Matches common AK furniture and disappears under field lighting.

Compatibility Notes
The DLG-133 is designed for AK-platform rifles that use a standard-style handguard retainer. Because AK dimensions vary by country of origin and manufacturer, minor fitting may be required. If your rifle uses a non-standard retainer, proprietary furniture system, or has unique gas tube geometry, consult a qualified armorer or gunsmith before purchase.
Typical Fit: AKM/AK-47/AK-74 pattern rifles with standard handguard retainers.
Check Before Installing: Retainer type, barrel/gas tube dimensions, and any aftermarket parts that may affect fit.
Installation Overview (High-Level)
Verify Unloaded: Remove magazine, lock action open, and visually/physically check the chamber.
Remove Existing Furniture: Disassemble per your rifle’s manual to access the lower handguard.
Fit & Seat the DLG-133: Align with the retainer and gas system; ensure full seating without binding.
Accessory Setup: Install M-LOK accessories with the proper torque and orientation.
Function Check: Confirm clear operation of the gas system and no interference with the cleaning rod or sling hardware.
For best results, have a qualified gunsmith perform installation—especially on AKs with non-standard tolerances.
Ideal Use Cases
Defensive/Patrol Carbine: Add a light and sling point without unnecessary weight.
Training & Competition: Improved grip surfaces and accessory positioning for speed & control.
Hunting & Field Use: Low-profile, snag-free design for thick brush and quick shots.
Care & Maintenance
Routine Wipe-Down: Clean with mild soap/water; avoid harsh solvents on polymer.
Inspect Hardware: Periodically check M-LOK screws for torque and witness marks.
Heat Management: Allow the rifle to cool after extended strings to preserve polymer longevity.

FAQ
Q: Will this fit my specific AK?
A: Most standard AKM/AK-pattern rifles with a traditional handguard retainer are compatible. Because AK specs vary, minor fitting may be required. If your rifle uses proprietary furniture, confirm compatibility before buying.
Q: Is heat a problem with polymer?
A: The DLG-133 uses a reinforced, heat-resistant polymer and vented design to help manage temperature during typical use. Allow cooling after long, rapid strings.
Q: Can I mount a light and a grip at the same time?
A: Yes. The M-LOK slots at 3/6/9 o’clock support multiple accessories as long as there’s clearance for the gas tube and barrel.
Q: Do I need extra hardware to mount M-LOK accessories?
A: Use the M-LOK T-nuts and screws supplied with your accessories. Follow manufacturer torque specs for a secure fit.
Bring your AK into the modern era with a forearm that’s lighter, faster, and ready for any accessory. The NcStar DLG-133 M-LOK Handguard (Polymer, Black) — VG133 delivers modularity and control without the weight penalty.
