An AK action should be no problem. Corrosive ammo isnt all that hard to clean, just need some windex or other ammonia solution to flood out the salts, and then you can clean up once you get home.

I don't think I'd want to put corrosive ammo through such a pricey gun. I shoot corrosive through my Mosin-Nagant, but not through anything else. The Mosin-Nagant is cheap, plentiful, and very easy to clean thoroughly due to simple internals. Cleaning every tiny bit of an AK could be a bit tedious. 5.45×39 is usually cheap because it is corrosive surplus. I don’t think I’d want to put corrosive ammo through such a pricey gun.

I'm leaning towards another 5.56mm. It could be used as a car gun in times of potential trouble, since in my home state of Pennsylvania it's illegal to carry a loaded rifle but not an SBR. The state considers them "other weapons" and covered by a CCW permit. Strange, huh? An Arsenal shorty will likely be my next AK purchase. I’m leaning towards another 5.56mm.
