I'm going to assume you weren't referring to me as I was neither whining nor was I "raising a ruckus" I was simply relaying my experience to the OP who was asking about people's actual EXPERIENCE with these folders.

That said, I may have to retract some of what I posted. My problems with the rear latch were with a KVAR polymer stock installed. When I put the triangle folder on, it did lock up tight. So if you're looking for a few parts to complete your BULGARIAN sidefolder, this stockset is a no go. But if you use the whole set togther, it will probably work.

I'm still dissapointed, after all these are supposed to be mil spec; to me, that means the parts should interchange.

Here are a couple pictures of the problem I'm having with the rear latch and the KVAR polymer sidefolder.

Here you see the stock latched and the latch is all the way down. It does catch the stock, but it leaves wobble.

Here the other side is interfering with a scope mount, this is a really annoying problem, but I guess it's my fault for assuming parts interchangeability  :sad:

So you might discount those problems as my own fault, but this is still unacceptable to me:



Now I admit I've got some meathooks for hands, but there's no way anybody could do that with an original Bulgy spring, this one's just too weak IMO. I should know too, because I bought the Bulgy set KVAR briefly had in stock a couple weeks ago. I would have bought two, but I had already commited to buying the DPH one  :neutral:

I'm not gonna take a bunch of pictures of the minor differences, because they are minor, and I've got better things to do.

Stocks arrived last week. We have shipped out most all of the "presale" orders. We will get the rest of them out on Monday. We have several more available.

These are reproductions of the Bulgarian AK74 side folding stock. They are NOT US made, therefore they do not count as a compliance part. The stock comes with the rear trunion, triangular folding stock, and all of the front latching parts. Very good quality and made to military specs.

Sorry for the slow reply....
These are being made in Tiawan. This is a project that we have been working on for almost a year. This is a project that we went looking for a company to do for us. We looked at several companies and decided on this one. We have done a few projects with them in the past. I can assure you that these are being made to military spec and the quality is top notch. If we didnt tell you that they were a reproduction of the Bulgy stock......you wouldnt know the difference.
