Seriously, they're legal. On page 3 of that link, you'll see what is banned - the rifle must have a detachable magazine (the AK DOES have one) and have 2 of the "evil" qualities on their laundry list of assault weapon features.
The only one that the AK has is a "pistol grip that protrudes..."
So your run of the mill AK with a wooden stock is A-OK. You can find them in any gun store and you'll see them at almost any busy range since they're incredibly popular.
Note though that there are guns built on the AK platform that you can buy in other states that have a folding stock, and possibly even a flash suppressor, but such guns would be illegal here in NYS, because a folding or telescoping stock is another one of the evil features found on "assault" weapons.
So, pistol grip + detachable mag = you're OK.
Detachable mag + pistol grip + folding stock = you're a criminal
