I think Sheepdawg has the right mindset. My objectives for a trunk gun would be:
1) Reasonably available caliber, rifle OR pistol
2) Something that I can tolerate being stolen (assuming some toads take some pry bars to my car while I'm not present) or lost (car succumbs to a flash flood, hurricane, etc.)
3) Something that allows me to scare off bad guys at least 50 yds away
4) Something that can be easily reloaded and manipulated in a confined environment (guess that means I won't be packin my flintlock
)
Honestly, a Hi-Point rifle in 9mm or .40 would work just fine, or even an AK.
I honestly think Variable nailed it though. Try not to over-think this stuff
