Product Description

The Avtomat Kalashnikova AK-74 is a semi automatic selective fire assault rifle, developed in the early 1970s in the Soviet Union by Mikhail Kalashnikov, as the replacement for the earlier AKM (M for "Modernizirovanniy" means "modernized") itself a refined version of the AK-47. It is chambered for the 5.45x39mm cartridge, replacing the 7.62x39mm of earlier Kalashnikov-pattern weapons. The rifle first saw service with Soviet forces engaged in the 1979 Afghanistan conflict. The head of the Afghan bureau of the Pakistani Inter-Services Intelligence claimed that the CIA paid $5000 for the first AK-74 captured by the mujahadeen during the Soviet–Afghan War. Presently, the rifle continues to be used by the majority of countries of the former USSR. Additionally, licensed copies were produced in Bulgaria (AK-74, AKS-74 and AKS-74U), the former East Germany (MPi-AK-74N, MPi-AKS-74N, MPi-AKS-74NK) and Romania (Puscă Automată model 1986). Besides former Soviet republics and eastern European countries, Mongolia, North Korean Special Forces, and Vietnamese People's Naval infantry use AK-74s.

This kit contains all necessary parts for assembling FIVE rifles with tactical acessories as used by FSB Spetsnaz "Alpha Group" elite antiterrorist team operators, under 1/48 scale, to be used with same 1/48 scale figures. Any extra diorama accessories are not included and should be purchased separately.
