ak, never know when you will be getting back to ' civilization' and all that might entail, so i want for sure workyness. Just made that word up.
How do you stay gray? Are you going to crawl into a hole and hide? If you have to be out and about, then you can look like a victim or a threat. The average bad guys will go after the easiest mark. During the L.A. riots, the stores that were not looted, were the stores where the owners sat outside with thier M1s and M1As. Those stores didn't get hit until the National Guard made the owners go home. If you are one of the "Bad Guys" are you going after a Man holding an AK, or the guy trying to look like a fence post?One of the easiest ways to stay out of trouble is to never look like a potential target or a potential threat. Being the much-slandered 'gray man' really does have advantages.
If you had to bug out, Katrina type natural disaster or other, and could only take 1 of your rifle's and 500 rounds of ammo, which would you take your AR or AK?
I'll have to differ with this somewhat. AR magazine changes are slightly quicker, but not hugely so, and it only takes a half-second longer (if that) to slap the AK's charging handle with the left hand as it does to slap the AR's bolt release.Magazine changes are much quicker and the AR has a bolt hold open.

5.45x39?An AK in 223 the best of both worlds
Those have value beyond simply being guns.
