I've been looking for a good plinking gun primarily for pleasure.
I'm seriously considering a Belgium made FN LAR and adding Zeiss
optics.

Anyone have any experience with these guns??

Thanks,

   Geez, are you sure you know what you want? A good *plinking* gun
will be something like a Ruger 10-22 with iron sights.

I forgot the smiley face when I said 'plinking'.  I've been
looking at light assault rifles and the FN seemed quite well made
and (in my limited experience) very accurate.  I only know of one
person who has one.  He likes it but never shoots it (saving it
for the apocalypse I guess).

Anyone have any experience with these rifles?
