I hate when I find a mistake like that in a book.  It destroys the credibility of the whole book.

The AK-74 has always had a 90 degree gas block, since it's been in production, AFAIK.  His AK has wooden furniture.  Probably an AKS-74.

This is the AK-74 variant most often popularly identified by it's distinctive 45-degree gas block design, and the first examples of the new AK-74 rifle captured in Afghanistan and documented in Western publications were dated 1976 and 1977.
