    Default deal or no deal?

    I've been toying with the idea of building a "beater" ar for a truck gun to throw behind the seat, I seen this deal and I dont belive I could build one for $585.00? opinions?

    I sell the Oly Plinker Plus for about $600 + 3.9% tax brand new. Includes a hard case, 30 round mag and sling, plus a warranty.

    You might check around because after shipping and a transfer fee you'll probably be well over $600.

    The Oly rifle upper/lower receivers are now forged as opposed to cast. Just my opinion but they'd make a pretty nice knock-about gun.

    shoot, I'd go for it
    of course, I'm always good at spending other's money.
    You can also check checking here and the EE on arfcom and put one together for about that. (buy a lower locally) and find an upper.
    I did that about 2 or 3 years ago and I bet I have less than $500 in it.
    shoots fine.
    for a knockaround gun I might think more of an A2 rather than a A3/M4 style, keeps the sights from getting knocked off. Just a thought.

    I've got one of these in the 18" rifle length gas configuration. It's pretty damn nice even if it is a DPMS lower. Might do some clean up on the trigger group, but for $600 no one can touch it with anything higher quality.

    Go for it..

    $1184 would have got you some reloading equipment or an AK and lots of ammo.
    enjoy the new toys CMMG has some very good deals.
