ak74 vs ak47

Comparison - great article

I prefer the lighter weight, lower recoil, and greater accuracy and range of the 74.  The previously available cheaper surplus ammo was such a great deal that it essentially meant you got the ak74 free ($350.),  if you bought a crate of ammo, 2 tins.  

Now the ammo price is up to the others since the surplus is no longer available, but the non-corrosive foreign manufacture versions are available online.  I even spotted some at Wally World recently.
