Zenitco B-30U Handguard Rail
Genuine Zenitco | One-piece CNC-milled D16T aluminum | Bottom Picatinny + side Bazis rails | For AK-pattern carbines | 3 colors
In short: the Zenitco B-30U is a full-length, one-piece CNC-milled D16T aluminum handguard that installs in the standard handguard position of AK-pattern carbines. It forms a Picatinny rail along the bottom and a Bazis guide rail on each side for direct accessory mounting.
Overview
The B-30U is the short version of the B-30 lower handguard, milled from one piece of D16T aluminum and fitted in place of the factory handguard. A Picatinny rail runs along the bottom for lights, aiming modules, front grips and additional brackets, with mounting points on the flanks.
Like the B-30, it is a lower half only: a rail over the gas tube is mandatory - B-31, B-31S or B-31N, picked to match the carbine - and the handguard cannot be installed without one. Finished in Black or Desert.

Please note: the B-30U is designed to work together with an upper bracket over the gas tube - the Zenitco B-31, B-31S or B-31N. Choose the upper bracket that matches your carbine before installing the B-30U.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the B-30U?
It is a full-length, one-piece CNC-milled D16T aluminum handguard for AK-pattern carbines with a bottom Picatinny rail and a Bazis guide rail on each side.
Do I need anything else to install it?
Yes - the B-30U works together with an upper bracket over the gas tube: the B-31, B-31S or B-31N. Pick the one that matches your carbine.
What can I mount on it?
On the side Bazis rails: B-2 / B-2L / B-2M / B-2U Picatinny rails, sling swivels, the RL-1 stop, RK-series grips, NPN-2 panels, FP-3 wire holders and D-series switches. On the bottom Picatinny: flashlights, aiming devices, grips and additional brackets.
How is it different from the B-30?
The B-30 forms Picatinny rails on the top and sides as a monolithic unit, while the B-30U forms a bottom Picatinny with side Bazis rails and pairs with a B-31-series upper bracket.
Do I need anything else to install the B-30U?
Yes. The B-30U is the lower handguard only. A rail over the gas tube is required - B-31, B-31S or B-31N, chosen for your carbine - and without it the handguard cannot be fitted.
How is the B-30U different from the B-30?
They are the same design in two lengths. The B-30U is the shorter one, which suits carbines with a shorter barrel or a build where the support hand sits further back.
