Ken thiessen. depradation hunter for ranchers. - ATN Aries MK 350 Guardian Night Vision Rifle Scope

I have used gen.1 and gen.3 night vision and was amazed at how sharp and identifiable any target is at night within the range of the infrared or ambient light. This gen. 1+ scope is much better than what I remembered gen 1 to be, and out to the same distance I used the gen. 3, it isn't that far behind. On a full moon night my friend walked out to the end of his property (350 yards) while I watched him and I never lost track of him though the cross hairs covered him. I sighted it in at 75 yards at a 6" bulls eye and had no trouble shooting a 1-5/8" group in sitting position mounted to my AR15 flat top. The target was crystal clear. I would not hesitate to buy another one if I needed one. The price it right and thanks to Optics Planet for free shipping I doubt you find a better deal than here.
Pros: This scope is of professional value. It really works.
Cons: Adds weight to my gun but nothing I can't cope with.
