Seems to me that that AKS-74 isn't so easy to find these days. Of course you can always buy the same triangle stock from k0var, I think, and have a builder modify the receiver to accept it.
They have some parts kits on gunbroker you can buy. |

Mario @PoHF bought SLR105 rifles when they were available and installed sidefolders on them. Contact a builder amd see if they could do it on a rifle for you.

Found one locally for $650 with some mags. Assuming it isn't a crappy Century, what other builders have been known to make them in the past?

And Jim Fuller is another good builder, people rave about him. http://www.rifledynamics.com/ http://www.overlandindustries.com/home.php |

Know of a good place for a Bulg AKS or AK-74 kit then?
Or would it just be cheaper to get a kit from Overland, and have them build it out? |

Century never made a triangle left side folder in any caliber. $650 is an awesome price for an AKS-74. When they first came out in 2004 after the ban ended, I paid $750 for one from Atlantic Firearms. It was built buy Red Jacket on an OOW receiver. That was before NoDak started making the left side folder receivers. My old AKS-74 was an amazing rifle. Wish I still had it but I had to have a Krink and couldn't afford both. |

Thanks for the input. Guess I can check it out in person to make sure if it is good or not.
And is the NDS-2 receiver only for the fixed stock AK-74? |

The NDS-2SF is for the Side Folder. Check to see if it has the pistol grip reinforcement plate. If not, it's not a deal breaker but it's nice to have if you plan on shooting it with the stock folded a lot. |

What is the pistol grip reinforcement plate?
Sorry, been about a year since I've looked at the internals of an AK (was a fixed stocked Romy). |

The grip nut will still protrude from the bottom of the receiver as it is supposed to. |
