The Magpul MAG445-FDE AK cheek riser is a no-tools accessory designed to improve your sight picture and cheek weld on AK platforms. This 0.25-inch cheek riser clips onto Magpul's MOE AK and Zhukov-S stocks without requiring any gunsmithing or additional hardware—just snap it on and you're ready to shoot. If you're running an AK with a modern furniture setup and find yourself craning your neck to align with your optic or iron sights, a cheek riser closes that gap and lets you mount your head naturally on the stock.

Magpul engineered this riser to stay out of your way. It won't block access to the MOE stock's internal storage compartment, and it won't interfere with the Zhukov-S folding mechanism—important if you're building a compact or travel-ready rifle. The Flat Dark Earth finish matches Magpul's furniture color family, so it blends seamlessly into a cohesive build. Made in the USA, it's built to the same durability standard as the rest of Magpul's polymer line.

Whether you're setting up a precision AK for long-range work, a home-defense rifle with a modern optic, or just want better ergonomics at the range, this clip-on riser is a simple way to dial in your cheek weld without committing to a new stock. The 0.25-inch lift is subtle but meaningful—enough to make a real difference if you're running a cantilever mount or a taller optic platform.
