AK-74 — wood, plum, and green furniture
interpolator
(Arma III — This will be available in RHS: AFRF mod, which also provided reload anims, sounds, and some other functionality)
AK-74 in three variations. The plastic furniture was introduced late into the AK-74's development cycle (~1985), as the AK-74M (1990) would soon replace both the AK-74 and the folding-stock AKS-74. Green versions of this furniture are quite rare; the russian on the plaque is a congratulation from Mikhail Kalashnikov to the competition winner, though another version also congratulates the brave border guard. So these were rewards for exceptional service.
If you've seen my AKS-74 then you'll see this is a modification of that; apart from the new stocks and foregrip, the AK also has a slightly different receiver due to the change in the rear trunnion + lack of folding stock mechanism. The different generations of magazine also differ slightly.

In Arma 3 the spec/gloss are shared to keep vram useage down. Normals have to be unique for the ribbing on the later era mags. So 2x materials, 3x unique diffuse textures.
Also figured I'd throw up a bunch of ref I've been using, with thanks to the various people who've sent me various sources:
