stock is incorrect, ak74m's have folding stocks with cutouts to make room for the side mount rail
i am pretty sure ak74m's have perfectly smooth dust covers, no ribs on them.
@MilSchwitz Only thing different/missing from real Russian furniture is the hinge (you know, for the side folding bit) and the uber tactical Plum Crazy Russkie™ coloration.
The AK74 was a complete overhaul of the AK47/AKM program to begin with, after the Soviets saw the benefits (though unperceived by numerous US forces) of a smaller round. They introduced the AK74 in 1974 chambered in the 5.45x39 round which was a mimic of the American 5.56x45, (common misnomer that the AK47 is superior in lethality than a smaller round, which is untrue). The AK74 became the Red Army standard and they replaced all AK47's and AKM's by the mid 80's.
In the early 2000's, the AK74 was improved upon to remove the orange bakelite furniture and replace it with black polymer furniture, to make it more durable. They did some other minor fixes too, and some of them had American (ish) 1913 rails adapted to them since that's kinda the modern industry standard. the result was the AK 74M
The M stands for 'Modernized' in Russian. It refers to the handguard being plastic.
