Reviews & Ratings for ATN Mars6x Gen.3 Night Vision Weapon Scope — 6 reviews — Page 1

It happens two months ago I bought this scope from another supplier. I have three other NV instruments as a stand alone spotting and mounting on a firearm. This product stands out as the best scope available in my opinion. It is streamlined, having a size comparable to a 'regular' scope. It is autogated, meaning that it has the capability to automatically protect the tube by detecting bright lights and auto-reducing the intensity. The manual tells you to use the protective cover with a pinhole aperture during the day, which is no problem because you can see, during daytime, adjust the scope, and shoot the weapon, using only the light available from the pinhole. It is certainle comforting to note that the scope is auto-gated however. The quality of the tube was exceptional, as third gen scopes usually have a quality control report detailing the instances of and severity of 'spots' that normally occur during the manufaturing process. In my case the report found zero unwanted spots on the tube. I was really pleased. I'm mounting this scope on a nine millimeter carbine using Glock magazines that is primarily a coyote gun. Next I hope to get a quality supressor. A friend tried his supressor on my carbine, and it sounded about as loud as a BB gun.

I know its a little expensive, but spend the extra money and get this scope. Ive tested many nv scopes this one is clearly the top one. I shoot hogs about 6 days a week and with this scope I can see up too 1000+ yards clearly based on the atmosphere and terrain. I have shot and killed hogs from 300+ yards with this nv scope. Good luck out there and be safe always.

I have to say that I have never written a review of ANY product ,until now, I found this scope to be better than expected, clarity was awesome, I was able to engage Coyotes at 200 and 300 yards the very first night I used it, both clean kills with NO doubt of target.
For the money nothing beats this scope, Thanks ATN for making a rugged quality product, If it stands up to the punishment I give it , it will be good to go.

This is an amazing product. Generation 3 is so much better than gen 1 or gen 2. It's well worth the money. I got a great price through optics planet. It only cost a few dollars more to go first class. I can see coyotes at 275 yards

Great scope! Took it out for a few days in the woods and loved it. In pitch dark with no moon the IR illumination was a must, but I was very pleased with the overall performance of the scope. Feels and looks very well built. Easy to use as well.

One thing to be aware of with night vision scopes with higher magnification is that depth of field can be tricky as can object sizing. Unlike the daytime, you don't have a full view of the background to gauge distance, which can make things seem larger than they really are. Scouting you hunting sites and identifying landmarks helps a lot.

Definitely a great buy. Not even in the same ball park as the Gen 1 & 2 stuff.
Pros: Sharp and bright image
Cons: Expensive...
