The mossberg 715 series are simply mossberg “plinksters” dressed up in composite material as an AR 15 style rifle. They are fun, low cost but the quality will reflect the cost. They will routinely jam, but not misfire once the bullet is in the chamber. Yeap, that’s with a well maintained rifle, for all the effort that takes. In my experience, maintenance is extremely cumbersome and you sacrifice functionality for looks. Still, fun is fun and that is what you are buying when you get a mossberg 715.
