Never heard of this Bulgarian AK-47 and no information from my weak Googling. Any leads or details from the ARFCOM collective?

Never heard of it and I'm pretty sure they don't exist. Where did you hear about them in the first place?

Most I could find was this, and it looks like the seller is confused

I've also never heard of an SLR-46, but must admit that I'm curious about the rifle in the auction. And that's because it has the muzzle brake of the SLR-95 and SLR-96, but the 45 degree gas block and vented gas tube of the SA93.
I would email the seller and ask for a model number confirmation and close-up picture of the part number engraved on the receiver. If it actually is engraved with SLR-46, then I will be shocked.

Thats where I saw it, Gun Broken. I emailed him to get closer pics of the receiver. I thought he made a mistake and that it was a "96".

I'm sure it's a SLR 96, as they have the 45 degree gas block like a 93. GARY

Actually, it seems that the SLR-96 may have been import with both gas blocks. My best guess is that early runs were imported with the 45deg GB that the SA93 used, and later runs were imported with the 90deg GB, as they transitioned away from the T3 components.

I'm fairly certain one of the SLR-95s that I owned during the ban had a 90d block.
