The round is large enough to puncture walls and injure or kill unintended targets

OP's rifle is an AK-74 (5.45×39), not the AK-47 (7.62x39). The difference is a 50-53 grain projectile at over 3,000 fps vs 123 grains at 2,400. Using hollow points, I'd be perfectly comfortable with 5.45x39 in a house due to the velocity-induced fragmentation of the light rounds. Barrel length in the close quarters would be my only concern, which is why my HD gun is a Tavor with an EoTech despite my affection for Kalashnikovs.
