I hate to split hairs but that was an SKS not an AK47. Sorry. That's just the NRA Life Member in me showing. You made a well thought out preparation plan. Thanks for sharing. All of us will likely face a lengthy power outage at one time or another. I made an 8 gauge wire 50' extension cord for my generator. I made a foot long cord that is male on both ends which I plug into the extension cord making it male on both ends. I remove my electric meter (not having main fuses to remove and not trusting a switch) and plug it into an outlet. This back feeds 1/2 my circuits. I plug it into one in my garage that feeds the circuit that my furnace is on.
