dfwgun @ ARFCOM posted a short tutorial on how to modify a Magpul MOE AR-15 pistol grip so that it will fit on an AK.
As you can see in the photo some dremel work is required but it is a pretty straight forward procedure.

I wish people would give up these Don Quixote type quests to make the AK not suck. Just admit you were wrong people! I used to believe the AR was crap too, but I’ve learned! Don’t ruin your MOE grips!
Yes, best question is why do this? Leave your AK alone, the thing works fine already. Does the high-speed grip really make this a better rifle? If you need addtional bits, buy them off the shelf, many companies make nice stuff for the AK and variants.
Hogue now makes an excellent AK grip as well.

The AK is a good all-around carbine, and ergonomic improvements make it even better, just like current AR’s are an improvement over early 1960s ARs. Saying that AK owners should stick with the traditional 1950’s AKM look is like saying AR owners should stick with fixed carry handles, triangular handguards, plastic grips, no rails, and no optics/lights.
