Olympic Arms K16 Heavy Barrel .223 Remington/5.56 NATO - Blue/Black, 16" Barrel, 30+1 Rounds, Synthetic, Black Stock

This is my second Olympic, the first one is the 7.62x39 K16 SST. by far these are the best of the best. I didn't care for the A2 stock so I added an ACE skeleton stock. This one is very accurate, shooting 1/2" groups with federal 5.56, and 3/8" groups with hornady 50gr ballistic tip.

Gun is well built except the plastic grey stock. Thr stock looks and feels like something on a toy gun. Hollow inside and thin. I will be changing stock.

My rifle is exactly as described. The only issue, and the only reason this is 4 instead of 5 stars, is some roughness, discoloration and shoddy finish on the buttstock, none of which effects the performance of the rifle. The rifle cycles OK with the supplied magazine, but I don't plan on using it except in an emergency as it is just OK. Extras not advertised are a sling and gun case, handy accessories that add to the value, if not the price. Very happy with Bud's and look forward to future purchases.

Don't let the price fool you . This is one of the best shooting guns I've bought in a while great value and great quality .

If you want a really good shooting AR and you want it at a good price by this one. It groups one inch or less at 100 yds all day long. Put a Nikon M223 4-16 from another AR and it just shoots like a dream. Don't know what to tell you buy it, unless you are hung up on high dollar AR's. It is also not too heavy with the 16" barrel. My other AR is a MOE with a adjustable stock and it is not much lighter than this full stocked, bulled barrel tack driver.

I absolutely love this firearm! I've owned several bushmaster AR rifles in the past and was highly disappointed with all of them. I was unsure of ordering this rifle at first but am very happy now that I did. I mounted a 2-8x32mm Nikon M-223 scope with the 600 bdc reticle on the rifle with Millet steel rings. I tried several different kinds of ammo with it but I got the best results with Remington 55 grain core lockts. I shot a 0.5 inch 5 shot group at 100 yards with the 55 grain core lockts after I got the rifle zeroed in. I would reccomend this rifle to anyone looking for an entry level AR at a great price.

always wanted an ar but was put off by the prices. This gun has it all a great price and it really works .I've put about 500 rounds through it without any ftf and most of those have been reloads. Thanks Buds for agreat gun and great service

I bought this rifle after my friend bought one (Matt E. review below mine) I had an ArmaLite AR-10TBN, and after shooting his gun, my mind was made up, Im gonna trade in my overpriced (name) rifle, and get one of these and a pistol. so thats what I did. Buds was great... Thanks again Gurney! the fit on this rifle is astounding! very tight upper and lower. only have one problem with this gun and its not with the gun itself, its with the mag that came with it, it was a gray follower if ya know what I mean, even with only 3 rounds loaded, I would charge the handle pull the trigger to hear a "click" the mag didnt feed properly, and the bolt didnt load it, just scard the brass as it tried to pick it up. my aftermarket "orange follower" had no problems. it isnt a big deal, im still happy, with all the money I saved buying this instead of another brand AR ill go buy 20 new mags. oh ya one other thing...Since I did a trade I cant leave a review on my old AR-10TBN, so ill sqweekit in here, it is for sale right now in the used section, its the second highest rifle in the used section right now for a reason...it is awesome....always maintained, always stored properly. very accurate!, its a nail driver. its an older armalite is the only reason I endorse it, if you know ArmaLite you know what that statement means.

I got this gun a month ago and I'm very happy with it. The fit and finish on it are excellent and it shoots great. I have put about two hundred rounds thru it so far and it hasn't complained about anything Iv'e put in it. If I had to buy another AR now it would be an Olympic Arms.

This is the best ar in my opinion! After zeroing at 100yds first ten shots fit into a quarter! Cant ask for a better rifle!
