Which hand gun fires 7.62x39?

I believe the AK-74(not 47) ammunition, mentioned in the article, is the 5.45X39 cartridge. I don't know of any handgun chambered for either round.
 
I just put my hands on an AK-47 pistol in a gun store last week. It sells for approx. $600. It is a short barrelled AK without a stock. Useless weapon, but probably fun to shoot. It was in 7.62x39.
 
I got a Draco "AK pistol" back when they were $375. Stretches the definition of pistol. Totally useless for anything but looks and wasting perfectly good ammo.
