should always travel with firearm un-chambered.in UK you would get 5 years no argument for traveling with a weapon in that condition.(yes I know semi auto rifles not allowed at all but single shot comparison)). a side on auto smash is 100 times more likely than an attempted robbery and the last thing you want in a road accident is a 7.62x39 round going off in your direction killing you or another innocent. GUN SAFETY-Means being a pessimist. expect the worst and any thing else is a bonus. As for robery if the AK is the only weapon available to you the cocking time is negligable.
