This video reviews the 1791 Industries Light Rider AK rail, a novel product made from a proprietary 'Magnite' material that is significantly lighter and claims to be stronger than aluminum. The rail is a close aesthetic clone of Zenitco designs but is not compatible with Zenitco parts. Installation on a Romanian AKM was exceptionally easy, taking only about 5 minutes, a stark contrast to typical Zenitco installations. The material also demonstrated impressive heat resistance during extensive live-fire testing.
This guide details the installation of Barwarus USA ZenitCo clone rails and dust covers for AK-pattern rifles. It covers the necessary tools, fitting adjustments, and the process of seating the rail and installing the dust cover, including swapping the recoil spring assembly end cap. The video highlights potential minor differences between the clone and original ZenitCo parts, particularly with dust cover fitment, and offers solutions for achieving a secure installation.
