The Magpul AK 0.25" Cheek Riser is a tool-less clip-on cheek weld height adjustment designed for AK platform shooters running MOE AK or Zhukov-S stocks. This accessory solves a critical ergonomic challenge: achieving proper sight picture alignment and optics co-witnessing without permanent modifications to the stock. The 0.25-inch profile provides the foundational cheek weld lift for users requiring modest height adjustment while maintaining a low-profile platform.
Installation requires no tools—the cheek riser simply clips onto compatible stocks via Magpul's proven retention system. The design does not interfere with the MOE stock's integrated storage compartment or the Zhukov-S folding mechanism, preserving full functionality of either platform. At 0.13 lbs, the riser adds negligible weight while maintaining structural rigidity under repeated mounting cycles. This modular approach allows operators to test different cheek weld heights by combining multiple risers (0.25", 0.50", and 0.75" variants are available separately) to achieve a custom sight-to-bore offset suited to their specific optic and shooting position.
This riser serves shooters transitioning from iron sights to optical systems, competition shooters optimizing cheek weld consistency, and defensive riflemen refining ergonomics for rapid target acquisition. The tool-less design makes it field-adjustable—no need to break down the rifle or visit an armorer to test fit. Magpul's cheek risers are manufactured in the U.S.A., ensuring quality control and supporting domestic production standards valued by military and law enforcement procurement.
