In 1991 the Izhmash factory in the city of Izhevsk began full scale production of a modernized variant of the AK-74, the AK-74MN modernized, folding stock assault rifle that offers more versatility compared to its predecessor. Apart from several minor production improvements, such as a lightened bolt and carrier assembly, the rifle features a new synthetic stock made from a black, glass-filled poly-amide that is shaped like the AK-74 fixed stock, but also side-folds like in the AKS-74. Additionally the AK-74MN uses an improved muzzle device and reinforced smooth dust cover. Each AK-74MN is fitted with a side-rail bracket for mounting optics.
If there was anything out there that is close to the real steel version, it would be this beauty. With its wood and steel construction, it gives it that weight and you can definitely feel it as you pull the trigger. The recoil is not light and would surprise you! Add a side mount rail and a scope on top of that and you'll own something that'll rate highly in the badassery scale! This new GHK AK series is hands down still one of the best gas blowback AK on the market today.
