In fact there is a civilian version of AK known as Saiga.
It lacks a select fire capability and mostly identical to military AK variants regardess this fact.
There is no ‘assault’ ban in Russia. Everything beyond artillery caliber without full-auto capability is citizen legal. Detachable mags holding more than 10 cartridges aren’t welcome but AFAIK the punishment is simply confiscating that mags or a little fine.

There are tons of "civilian" AKs. The Saiga is just one of many. Saigas are somewhat unique in being built from scratch as civilian weapons. Most AKs sold commercially in the US are former Combloc military weapons rebuilt around a new semiauto receiver. (Or, in the dark ages of the late 1980s around "demilled" receivers which are no longer legal, if they ever were.)

Confusingly, there is no standard designation for a semi-auto AK. You can find "AK-47" applied to both semi-auto and selective fire weapons.
