Zenitco Leader-S Reinforced Bazis Handguard Kit
- $799
In short: Zenitco Leader-S is the reinforced version of the Leader modular handguard kit. It combines four-sided Bazis guides, a strengthened lower guide and a lowered front platform in a 338 mm, 445 g D16T aluminum assembly.
Leader-S versus Leader
Leader-S uses the reinforced B-10LS lower section and reinforced Leader-S hook. The separate Leader kit uses a lighter lower Bazis guide. Both share the modular Leader layout; choose Leader-S when the reinforced underside is the deciding requirement.
Compatibility checkpoint
The manufacturer documents Leader-S for compatible full-size configurations with a minimum 415 mm specification and excludes compact versions. Use with a cleaning rod is not possible. Confirm the exact platform and original ferrule before installation.
Bazis accessory layout
Bazis guides run on four sides. Compatible Bazis accessories mount directly; Picatinny accessories require a separate adapter such as B-2, B-2L or B-2U. The lowered front section accepts the documented Perst configuration or the separately sold Leader insert.

Installation notes
The lower section is designed for a tight interference fit. Follow the manufacturer manual and do not file the B-10LS to make it enter more easily. The official procedure permits work only on the specifically documented protrusion when an original ferrule has no cleaning-rod opening; no other areas should be altered. Professional installation is recommended when fitment is uncertain.
