My best friend during Grad school was Matt Marshall. His dad is Evan Marshall, the guy that wrote a book on stopping power. I asked him once what was the best handgun to keep in my car. He said you should keep a rifle in your car and a hand gun on you to fight your way back to it. He suggested an sks converted to 30 round mags. I said I had one and it wasn't very accurate. He said it was plenty accurate for a battle rifle. He said you'll be gunning and running not shooting groups from a bench.

I've been meaning to get an AK but worry I missed my chance. I almost bought a palmetto last year but someone told me nit to that there were better ones. I hesitated.

I'm now finishing a 8.5" 300 BO with a bracelet that'll ride in a vehicle when done.
