Welcome back to another Gun Day Sunday! The ComBlok vibes aren't ending yet! This time with a truly rare piece of art. Built from an East German AK-74 kit, this wind-blown blonde shows her built MPi-AKS-74NK. An absolutely stunning AK that squeezes every drop of envy out of me. It is so cool!
Shown here:

I would not know if the Romanians got their start with the Draco with the 12.5" East German rifles but it would explain why Cugir was able to get it right so fast. But, they use different front sight/gas block combo units from each other which could just be a stylistic choice. Soviet bakelite is not truly bakelite. It just gets that name because it superficially looks and feels like bakelite. In reality, it is a glass reinforced thermoplastic that the Soviets came up with. The bonding of the glass fibers has its base in true bakelight but with a different formula to meet some specifications (that I do not know about). East Germany also produced magazines of this material but they are rare to find nowadays.
I know this'll sound totally "bougie" of me, but they should have given it its own unique "marketable" name. Something catchy like "Moskolite" or whatnot.
Bakelite gets its name from its inventor, so referring to anything that's not true Bakelite as "Bakelite" (apparently, it should be capitalized) just isn't proper.

Also if it helps with the nomenclature:
MPi (maschinenpistole)
AK (Avtomat Kalashnikova)
S (skladnoy [folding, as in the stock folds])
74 (year of original model's adoption in the Soviet Union)
N (noch or nacht [night, as in the side rail was originally meant for mounting night vision devices])
K (kurz [short])
