It's possible some were imported for the civilian market before 1986 and are transferrable, but the number would be very low.
A licensed machinegun manufacturer or Special Occupational Taxpayer can legally assemble and keep a "post-1986 dealer sample" AK and I'm sure that hundreds or even thousands do, but those are not transferrable except to law-enforcement agencies.
Generally if some punk (e.g. the Los Angeles bank robbers) has a selective-fire AK the weapon was never legal to possess in the US.
