I choose M16A2 and Beretta M9. I carried them around for enough years. I mastered shooting M16A2 to 600yds and M9 to 50 yds. 5.56mm NATO and 9mm NATO is universal arround the world, I got all the matching accessories and fashionable add -ons. A bunch of countries have standard issue rifles that use M16 compatable magazines.

I spent 40 years learning that the AK was the weapon of choice of the bad guys. I figure that there is a good part of the planet that kinda believes the same. I dislike getting shot at, but it really sucks to be shot at because of mistaken identity.

I figure if I really need an AK there would be a bunch of them laying on the ground after I empty my last M16 magazine.
