  For the budget minded shooter. This AR-15 is an affordable .223 caliber "fun-gun"

  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.

  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.

  I purchased the Plinker Plus Carbine and love it. I wanted a K.I.S.S. (Keep It Simple Stupid) rifle & iconic look. I love the fact the upper is really a A-2 (Brass deflector & F.A.(forward assist) with A-1 sights. Unless you plan to shoot outside of 200 yrds with iron sights, don't worry about A-2 sights. It's Just one more thing to break IMHO. You can mount a scope on the carry handle with fair results. I put 300 plus rounds in mine the first day out and no FTF or malfunctions ever. The fit between the upper and lower are very snug and match perfectly. The finish is nice and the machine work is perfect quality. My trigger is smooth, and breaks cleanly for a stock trigger. A-2 stock is your standard equipment, but can be changed out to anything you desire. I could almost cover my groups with a quarter shooting @ 50yds. The standard barrels are match grade and it shows. Olympic Arms is the second oldest manufacture of AR's and makes all parts in house. I'm very pleased with my Plinker Plus and suggest reading up on them at OA2.org site. Olympic Arms Owners Association and hear from actual owners. So if your want kiss and quality @ the best price? It's hard to beat this black rifle.

  Great wepon. Very good value not to mention the price. I took this wepon out with absolutely no mods. With the A1 sights and out shot a bushmaster with an Eotec and laser. Highly recomended.
Customized Plinker Plus (5/5) Dec 5, 2009 Jim Williams Washington We US
  I purchased this base model Olympic Arms Plinker Plus AR-15 with the intent of adding some furniture to make it like I want it. I added a pick rail forearm, houge grip, CAA stock with adjustable cheek piece, harris bi-pod, and I had the upper switched out with an Olympic flat top. I also have two sets of optics that I switch back and forth a 2.5x10 target and a red dot scope. I did nothing with the trigger, barrel or any other major parts, mostly cosmetic. I could not believe how well this thing shoots. I have shot Remington, Hornady, Lake City, Federal, and hand loads ranging from 55 grain to 62 grain with no problems what so ever. I have ran roughly 1500 rounds of ammo through my Customized Pliner Plus and have never had one failure. My Plinker Plus will consistantly shoot sub MOA groups out at 200 yards. Most of my friends have Bushmasters, S&W's, and Remington R-15's but all of them love my Olympic had have more than once offered to buy or trade. Do not let the price fool you, Olympic is one of the few true AR-15 manufacturers and most others only purchase parts and assemble them with their name added to the rifle. Olympic has the best warranty available (Full $$ back 60 Day, and Full Lifetime). The fit and finish out of the box was excellant with no rattle between upper and lower. Most other AR-15's that I have been around sound like a baby toy when you shake them. I couldn't be more pleased with my purchase and my next AR will also be an Olymopic.
