Plinker Plus (4/5) | Aug 25, 2005 | Anonymous | |
| For the budget minded shooter. This AR-15 is an affordable .223 caliber "fun-gun" | ||||

The Olympic Arms Plinker Plus AR-15 is hands down the best value to be found in an AR-15. It is the AR-15 that Colt, Bushmaster, DPMS and others don't want you to know about! (Those are all fine rifles, but in my opinion not as good of a value.) While the Plinker Plus does not have all the features of more expensive AR-15's, it also doesn't have the price tag of those weapons. And as far as function and reliability are concerned, the Plinker Plus goes "Bang" everytime...which is exactly what you want and need it to do. The build quality on these is also surprisingly good. And accuracy is typical AR-15 too, which is to say that once it's sighted in, it is very accurate. Yes, there are other AR-15's out there that do certain things better, and yes, there are other AR-15's out there that come with more bragging rights. But as far as value goes ("value" being defined as the best possible combination of price, performance and overall quality), the Oly Arms Plinker Plus is quite possibly the best value to be found in a new AR-15. The only people I've seen who don't like this rifle are the "gun snobs". "Gun snobs" are people who think that if a firearm doesn't have a high price tag, it CAN'T be very good. While there may have been a time in the past when such a philosophy made sense, these days, the idea that a gun has to be expensive to be good is absolutely ridiculous. Gun snobs, and in particular AR-15 gun snobs (who are some of the worst), simply refuse to accept the fact that this under-$600 AR-15 is indeed a very good and very capable rifle. If you're looking for a fun, reliable, accurate and versatile AR-15 that can be used for plinking, small game hunting or homeland defense, look no further. The Oly Arms Plinker Plus will do all that, for hundreds less than the competition. |

Olympic arms Plinker (5/5) | Nov 8, 2006 | Brian Watson | Semmes AL US |
| The Best budget AR-15 on the market. 100% reliable,affordable,dependable.Can't say enough good things about it. I went shooting with my brother last weekend. He had his AK-47 and was bad mouthing my plastic AR. After a 6 shots his AK went down. Broken striker. He blamed the ammo. My Plinker ate it up and never skipped a beat. Awesome rifle. | ||||

The Oly Plinker is a great Rifle.It shoots as well or better than all of my guns. After firing at least 2000 rounds,I have never had even one problem.Also very accurate rite out of the box,I did not even have to zero the sites.I belong to a group of AR 15 shooters at my gun range,all with a lot of different makes and models of the little black rifle.All who have seen the plinker in action agree it's a great deal. Don't let the name Plinker fool you,This is a lot of BANG for your buck! |

| I have probably put about 8 thousand rounds through this thing and have never had a problem. With regular cleaning I imagine it will keep going for years to come. | ||||

| This AR is as good as any made, for hundreds less. Probably the best deal I've ever got on a gun purchase. I added a collapsible stock for $30 and a quality set of front grips(USA made) for $25. I've seen guns at gun shows for almost twice as much, that were no better. If you want an affordable, quality carbine, this is the one to buy. | ||||
