I want a 7.62x39 to keep in my trunk. I already have an AK-47 but don't want to get it messed up, and it will get messed up in the trunk of my car with my carpenter tools.

I was looking at the auctions and SKS Yugos are very cheap.
What do you think of these? They sell for approx. $150.
What other 7.62x39 do you suggest?

Maybe I should just spend the $300 and something and get another AK-47.

  If your specifically lookin for an autoloader, then an inexpensive SKS or Ak would be a good choice since the rifle will be getting beat up, but CZ also has a really nifty 7.62x39 bolt action carbine thats accurate and light.
  
  Between the autos though, id have to go with one of the Romanian AKs, they cost a bit more but id say are worth it becuase of smaller size and more user friendly magazine design. Good luck!

  For cheap go with SKS, when it wears out or breaks from the abuse in the trunk, then buy another one and you're still barely to the price of a single AK

  You just can't go wrong with an SKS ... Yugo, Romanian (although I hear the rear sight tends to fall off), Chineese are good and my personal preferance ... the Russians

  i picked up a yugo and it shoots great at 100 yards. Not sure how far you plan on shooting but i got one in great condition for 170.
