I'm considering building an AK-47. I guess the way to go is to buy
a parts kit less receiver and buy the receiver parts ready to drill
and rivet?

Any favorite AK to look for? (Polish, Bulgarian,...)

I don't want to build an full auto for legal reasons, are there any
specifics on how to make it a semi-auto without being accused of
trying to make a machine gun?

I found a website somewhere a few months back where a guy used a shovel
blade to make an AK receiver . Beat it flat , cut it to shape , and fold it
to shape . He bought the rails and other internal parts , welded some etc .
I found the article ineresting , but lost the link when this comp crashed a
couple of months ago . Ah , here ya go , wasn't at all hard to find

Enough takers and I make the dies to stamp them out.
