Lol which are you referring to with the inaccuracy statement? In my experiences back in the day The AK models weren't so accurate as reliable. On the family farm I shot rabbits at 80 meters with my old mini-14 and deer at 100 meters with iron sights. Something I would have never tried with my Romanian AK (which became part of a trade for a '79 F-250 4x4 2 months after I bought it). I like the versatility of the .223 round. I also like the .30 carbine for it's versatility and mags are available from 5 rnds to 30. I don't do auto loaders these days but the rolling bolt design was always my favorite.

Besides if Mike doesn't want the cops finding an AR in his truck I don't think an AK is the right alternative.

The Remington 7400 is a nice "social" rifle, Browning makes some nice ones too.
 
As far as the lack accuracy of the older mini 14, it can be fixed by installing a barrel stabilizer, such as the mo-rod or the har bar. They do work pretty darn good. The reliability factor is why I love mine so much. You can throw it in a mud puddle or drop it in a pile of sand, pick it up and it will still shoot everytime. I like the ar platform, they are just a bit to finicky for me.
