Just out of curiosity, what is the gun's origin, Russian, Bulgarian? Of course you do as you wish, but if it were me, I'd keep the folding stock one and just get another with a fixed stock or try a trade with someone.
I personally like the look of the first generation Russian AK-74s too and I have a Saiga Legion fixed stock in 5.45x39. Last month I ordered a complete Russian wood furniture set from Russia...just waiting for the set to arrive via the proverbial slow boat.
I also have a Saiga Legion fixed stock in 7.62x39 but I may keep that one with the plastic furniture to look more "correct", even though I don't believe the Russians made a 100-series in 7.62 with a fixed stock.

Actually I don't even have one yet. I am not even 100% sure I will get one this year. I have a list of rifles I want to get and it is going to be based on what is available when I have close to three grand available by the 3rd or fourth quarter of this year. It will either be a AK-74, Styer AUG, a vintage Armalite, Howa or (preferably) Sterling AR-180, Bushmaster M17S, IWI X95, a CETME 5.56mm or a Tommy Built Tactical TG36 (Heckler And Koch G36 clone).
That sounds like a nice rifle alright! That Saiga Legion you mentioned. Hope you get the wood furniture for it soon man. You'll have to post photos of it in one of the gallery threads when you have the Russian wood on it!
And yeah I am sure like alot of my guns i will probably have several AK-74's down the road.
I always like to plan way ahead so that is why I decided to start this thread. Checked a few out on Gun Broker and there are some tempting ones if I had the money. There are 2 Circle 10 one's on there for under three grand and a Century Arms for two grand even and a folding stock PSA for two grand five hundred. If I do get a AK-74 by the end of the year I will let you know and post some photos. Thanks again for the kind replies!
