First it's not a "machine gun" and no it was NEVER used in world war2. The answer is in the name AK-47 which means Automatic Kalishnikov 1947 < the year it was designed. Hence the AK-74 < built in 1974. World War Two ended in 1945.

No. Development of what would become the AK-47 was under way, but the rifle would not be fielded until 1947 - too late to see service in WWII. The first assault rifles were fielded by the Germans, those being the FG-42 and StG44/MP43.
