Kalashnikov is the name of the designer.. all AK variants are Kalashnikov rifles in some form. The AK-47 is a specific model - the early production models, which used a milled receiver. Most of what get referred to as AK-47s are actually AKM rifles - not the model of 1947. The AKM was the modernised, simplified model of AK which entered production in 1959. It is visually distinct from the original AK-47 by the small losenge-shaped indentation over the magazine well, as opposed to the very large indentation on the AK-47 receiver.
