Zenitco Sport-8U Kit - Extended Basis-Rail Handguard System for Saiga-308 (v.61)

Genuine Zenitco | Extended handguard kit for the Saiga-308 (version 61) | Basis rails on five sides | D16T aluminum | 388 g, 330 mm | Black & Desert
In short: the Sport-8U is a genuine Zenitco extended handguard kit that installs in place of the factory handguard on the Saiga-308 (version 61). It is the longer version of the Sport-8 - 330 mm - and carries the Zenitco Basis rail on five sides, so you can mount Basis-compatible accessories (Picatinny rails, sling swivels, hand stops, grips, switches, covers and cable holders) directly onto the handguard. Machined from D16T aluminum; the set weighs about 388 g.

Overview

Sport-8U is the extended handguard kit for the Saiga-308 version 61: the B-23L handguard with the longer B-31U/RPK rail over the gas tube and the DL-5 extension insert.

Five Bazis guides run around it for Picatinny sections, swivels, hand stops, grips, switches, covers and wire clips. It also opens up the barrel between the receiver and the gas block, which helps cooling on a long string.

Compatibility Note: for the Saiga-308 version 61, on the factory handguard seat.

The kit is supplied as several parts (the B-23L handguard, the B-31U/RPK mount over the gas tube, the DL-5 add-on rail, two Styazhka-2 tie bars and the mounting screws) with a manual. Besides adding mounting real estate on every side, the open Basis design improves airflow around the barrel between the receiver and the gas tube, which helps cooling. A rigid, extended handguard also gives your optics and accessories a more stable, repeatable zero and more room to position them.

Compatibility: fits the Zenitco Saiga-308, version 61. Installs onto the factory handguard seat. Note: the cleaning rod cannot be refitted in its factory position.
