Here's my Bulgarian with plum furniture. Started out with a mix of parked and painted parts with black poly furniture. I refinished it with Duracoat and plum:

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By nictra:love me a nice Romy 74 Yes, Derek's nice CUR-2 is something you don't see often. And still with the original, upturned charging handle. Seems like that part is always mysteriously swapped out for a straight one in all the auctions and sale ads nowadays... That was what my first '74 was, which I bought in the late 90's when they where the only thing available in 5.45x39. I still have it and will never sell it. |

It would match nice with your Plum handguard. I picked one up in OD. |

I bought two as its trial and error. the one that turned out not so plum got painted, while round two yielded results I wanted. Pmags or pmag clips are great test platforms for testing dye mixtures. Wine rit dye will get you very close by itself, a VERY small amount of brown made it a perfect match. ETA: FDE must be the base color to dye |
