As I continue the ever ongoing task of planning and updating a SHTF "kit" I started thinking to myself in terms of what ammo or weapons may be scrounged from the streets should an actual "war" break out.
My figuring is 9mm, .40 and .223 I base that on the fact that much of the military still carrys M-9s (pmm), Local LEO generally use .40 Glocks and Military M-16 and LEO AR-15's are generally .223 except for some H&K MP5's and that's back to 9mm.
My current weapons would be a Beretta 9mm and a Kel-Tec PLR-16 but if things get bad, I am not adverse to "acquiring" whatever may be laying around.
I guess my wonder is where the AK plays in it all. Seems as soon as action breaks out, AKs are everywhere ... will that be the same here?
Obviously there is an amazing growth in AK's in areas where cash is not king and there have not been that many stolen recently so who is arming our ghettos?
