Seems a little steep, sounds like its the cheapest you come by and want to jump on it, save you self the hassle and just wait for a sale on something that has a bit better QC and reputation. However if you like how it feels and it seems right buy it because they have a life time warranty.

Also look up on Google reviews, that way you pull from several firearms forums.

After looking though older posts..I felt this one needed one more post. I purchased my K8 last year (2011). Out of the box it was shooting sub .5 MOA and cloverleafs. I was truely amazed at the pin-point accuracy.

So well engineered that it can go head to head with any of my match 223 bolt guns in the cabinet.

Thanks Olympic Arms

I don't think you'll find a better shooting or better quality AR for anything near that price. I have several Olympic rifles/uppers and each and every one is amazingly accurate. If I didn't have too many rifles already, I'd be asking for a contact on the rifle you described.
