    Default Underfolder AK-74?

    So I was doing some research on some near future purchases I want to make and the hardest to locate is an underfolding AK-74 with the traditional finish. I did a Google search and found exactly what I am looking for: AK-74. It's perfect IMO, right down to the magazine. However that seems to be a custom job by a company I never heard of, it's made by Front Line Armory. Thoughts on this company and/or other places I can find an AK-74 like this would be great, prices would be even better. Thanks.

    There are no ak-74 underfolders (that I know of) on the market, other than custom builds.

    Your best bet (IMO) would be to look for a side-folder. If you have to have the underfolder in 5.45, it's going to have to be a custom build.


    BTW: That is a Russian Bakelite mag. They usually run about $60 a pop.

    That sucks, what's the deal with that? I am not a big fan of the side-folder option. So tell me if I am looking for a custom built 74 like this where should I focus my search? Thanks, and yeah those mag's are expensive.

    That's what I would like to know, I cannot find that information anywhere on the website. However to my surprise when I checked out the "Contact Info" I learned this guy is a local. He is up in Mountain Top, PA which is around Wilkes Barre. That would be awesome since he seems to have a lot of cool firearms.

    Edit: I did find some pricing information here however this pricing is not complete from what I can see.

    This makes a ton of sense. PAPat does absolutely fabulous work. His attention to detail is inspiring.

    No wonder when I saw it my gut immediately said "buy".
