They have one for an M1a so would a design work for an AK?

I think he means something like the Troy Industries EBR chassis.

CBRPS makes a bullpup chassis, but you can't get more bubba-turn-mall-ninja than those. Really, the AK doesn't need a chassis system, it's already heavy enough and as accurate as it needs to be. If you want the chassis look...CAA's X47 aluminum RIS looks good.

No one makes what you are referring to.  The reason the 'chassis' exists for the M14 is the M14 (like the M1a and many earlier rifles) is a rifle action and barrel that sit within a stock- essentially the stock holds the guts.  Modern rifles have an integral frame.  This is simpler to manufacture and usually lighter to boot.

Think of it as the difference of a 1950's car with a steel frame with components inserted inside and sheeet metal bolted to it  vs. a modern unibody frame where the sheetmetal is  both the body and the frame- they are one in the same.  

If you want rails you put a railed forend on a modern rifle and the stock is a separate part.  There is no real functional reason to combine the two into a single unit (other than aesthetics, with the exception of the aforementioned bullpup stock.  In fact, it would be difficult to make such a 'chassis' without mucking up the existing controls.
