Mikhail Kalashnikov designed the AK47 rifle. If, at any point, he had designed it for a larger cartridge (which there is no indication that he did), then it would have been because he had begun the design before the requirement was made that his design utilize the 7.62x39 cartridge, which was first used in the SKS rifle.
