The AK-74M (GRAU Index: 6P34) is a Russian assault rifle developed by modernizing the AK-74. The AK-100 series of firearms are directly related to the AK-74M, with the AK-74M being the original AK-100 model of the series. The AK-105 is the shorter barrelled model of the series.

The AK-74M features polymer furniture, a folding stock like the AKS-74, and a Warsaw Pact Rail like the AK-74N. The AK-74M was originally known as AKS-74M, but at some point changed to AK-74M when folding stocks seemed to be the new standard for infantry weapons. The AK-74M also features a lighter bolt and carrier assembly, improved muzzle device, new dust cover, and new guide rod return spring retainer. The GP-25, GP-30, or GP-34 are able to be fitted to the AK-74M.

The AK-74M comes equipped with the Warsaw Pact Rail, but lacks the N suffix that previous models would receive if they were fitted with the rail (AK-74 vs. AK-74N). The N is still used however, in variants of the firearm where optics are actually mounted, like the AK-74MN1.
