Polish underfolder with chrome lined barrel, professionally built on a good 1.5mm receiver.

Get the underfolder. Believe me, they will be the first to get banned. I speak from experience. In 1989, I was lucky to be able to purchase a Polytech stamped receiver fixed stock. Price $400. The Polytech and Norinco underfolders were all snapped up everywhere just after the import ban was announced. The fixed stock AK's didn't get snapped up as fast, and I was lucky to be able to get one. I should have bought all 4 that the dealer had left for sale. Also, don't worry too much about the bayonet lug - that was so '90's and no one cares anymore. FWIW, they were importing Polytechs so fast that there was absolutely no finish on the stock or fore end pieces when I bought mine - just raw wood.
