Did the Germans use an AK47?

No, the Germans did not use the AK-47 as it was developed by the Soviet Union in the late 1940s. The AK-47 became widely used by various communist countries and insurgent groups, but German military forces primarily used weapons such as the G3 rifle, which was developed in the 1950s. While there may have been some instances of captured AK-47s being used by German forces, they were not standard issue.
