Bulgarian AK-74 Mags

Got 4 plum AK-74 mags from K-Var and was surprised at how poor the workmanship and finish are. I have several Bulgarian AK-47 polymer and steel mags and their fit, finish and workmanship are the best of my mags. Anybody here has had the same experience?

Are you able to post some pics up??

would love to see what your talking about.
The only Bulgarian mags I have in 5.45 are black. They seem to be
finished OK, not as well as the Soviet, or E. German, but nothing that
is an attention grabber.
I bought used plum,s from Kvar

On their July 4th special good price but boy the were a mess. Big time carved up most of them. Expected that but if I get anymore before there gone I'll go someplace else.

Still seems like a jip for $20 a mag...
It was 15% off so the bill on 10 was $188 shipped.

When you think about it, the Soviet plums would be the most of value, for their origin alone.
Ordered 4 of the plums and they all were in excellent shape,was thinking about ordering a few more but now I don't know :neutral:...wait a minute, are we talking about the used Russian plums or the Kvar plums?...my good ones were Kvar's :oops:
I wasn't quite so lucky, ordered some neutered parts for a training rifle build along with 2 plum used mags, they were pretty beat up with HUGE billboard carvings on one side-funy thing is, all in english alphabets..seems like not a job done by Russian enduser.
