Richard D. from United States, GA Public Profile

I’m writing this review as honestly as I can. The thermal ATN scopes in general have tremendous reliability problems. I started with a refurbished Lt. had to send it back two times. Finally, on the third return the policy was to send new scope. At this time I drcided to upgrade to a 4.5x18 384 model. It’s been sent back twice. It is working somewhat now, but I constantly have to perform a hard reset. The scopes, when working, are good (not excellent) and the technical staff usually will work with you, but reliability is most important. I can not trust the scope to come even turn on ( which has been all but one of the problems). Local stores want nothing to do with ATN products because of multiple issues just like mine. The product performs good when it works and has a lot of function You just can’t hunt in the dark with essentially a boat anchor. I’m sorry ATN but around south west GA you can’t find much pros for the brand. My recommendation to any one spending this kind of money is to invest somewhere else. I hope this helps anyone trying to decide. Last but not least, don’t rely on the quick detach mounts. The aluminum is too soft and will quickly strip with any reasonable amount of torque applied to the ring screws, especially anything above 12 inch pound.
