I've seen Bulgarian AKS74's with laminate, plum and black furniture. I don't know the timeframes for their use, though.
I currently only have one Bulgy sidefolder and it has black handguards/PG...at least until I find a good deal on a set of laminate wood. |

+1.....I've only ever seen three different "original" furnitures; laminate wood, polymer black, and polymer plum. Accoring to the link below, it "appears" as if the polymers furniture was for Motorized Infantry, while the wood furniture was for Airborne Troops, but not sure if that's specific to the Bulgy. It may be specific to the Soviet AKS-74. AKS-74 |

I think it's wood-plum-black. Don't know the time frame tho.

I love my '74's.
I hate the factory PG- it's some sort of faggy strawberry color like a starburst candy- at least that's what came with the wood kits I got. Black grips look much cooler |

It was in that order. Remember that on the folding stock AK-74s most of the time the russians at least, and maybe the Bulgarians too, used a laminate pistol grip for their wood furniture instead of a bakelite one, and a glossy plum grip on the rifles with plum furniture instead of the matte grip used on normal AK-74s
