Delivery Time and Manufacturing Process for ATN MARS6x-CGT Night Vision Weapon Scope:
Most of our manufacturers do not keep products like ATN MARS6x-CGT Night Vision Weapon Scope assembled on the shelf. Night Vision tubes are kept separate from the body of the unit. When the order is placed, the manufacturer starts the order processing and assembly process which includes the following:
- Order processing - we collect all the necessary information including address and phone numbers. We also make sure that our customer ordered the correct product for their needs and that the product can be exported by US law to the country of destination. In some cases a signed export compliance form is required.
- QC - in this step the manufacturer will inspect all individual parts which will be used to assemble the night vision device for any defects.
- Production & Assembly - during production, all the parts are put together. Night Vision tubes in inserted into the body of the unit and all the complex electronics for the device are connected. This process takes place in a special lab called the "clean room" as even a small speckle of dust can cause undesired optical effect.
- QA - one the night vision device is assembled, it goes through a rigorous testing process to make sure it meets all the expected specifications and all parts function as expected. For this most manufacturers have a special "dark room" designed to allow testing of the units without causing incidental damage to the night vision tube by exposure to bright light.
- Packaging - this is a key process as well. In most case your night vision device will be shipped to you directly from the manufacturer but sometimes needs to be sent to us first. In either case items need to be packaged securely to avoid any kind of damage during transportation.
- Shipping - as described above items will most of the time ship from the manufacturer. For most domestic orders (unless shipping to POB or AFB) a premium shipper like FedEx or UPS will be used.
Only by following the above steps can we along with our manufacturers bring you - our customer - night vision products of highest quality, However as you can understand the above process can take several days to complete. For example if your device fails QA, the entire process restarts. Also at QC stage a manufacturer may realize that the tube they have in stock has a defect and a replacement tube needs to be ordered. Due to the complexity of this process, it is prudent to expect 3-4 business days for production and handling of the purchased device. Keep in mind that this process is designed to guarantee your satisfaction with the night vision device of your choice. It occasionally possible to expedite the process for urgent orders but addional fees or other restrictions may apply.

Review of ATN Mars6x Gen.2
It has been a little over a year, and I feel like I should update my review. I am updating my review, as I prepare to buy my second version of this scope. Since I bought this scope, I have become a semi professional hog killer in Texas. In other words, this scope has become a hobby. There are a few things no one told me, that I think buyers should know. 1) Be careful with the rubber eye cup. It falls off, fortunatley, ATN will send you another, and its not a lot. Just keep an eye on it, as you can knock it off, and the only time you use this scope is, of course, in the dark. It doesn't fall off without effort, but lifting it through brush etc. can pull it off. 2) Be especially careful when you plug the remote in. This is the only real design flaw in my opinion. The pins are too small, and too close together. Note to designers - folks use these things in the dark. 3) The focal length of this scope is not much. In other words, you have to focus depending on how far away your target is. If its withing 20 feet, you can't see it. Carry a flashlight and shotgun with you for close up critters. Otherwise, get used to the focus knob. It is easy to use, and is rock solid. 4) I use a fully automatic (M16) on hogs. Sometimes the scope shuts off. I think I over stress it. Just shut it off, and turn it back on, and it works again. 5) Keep the lens cover on it, all the time. Light hitting it, even when the scope is off, can damage it. A friend left a gen 3 in the sun, and it toasted it. To me, I can't imagine a better product for varmits and hogs. I can't see spending anymore. I do recommend 6X, and I wish they had even higher avaialable. I have 400 hours of use easy, and its still perfect. Pros: Varmits don't have a chance. Cons: Remote plug eventually breaks, sometimes the scope needs to be "rebooted", its heavy. eye cup come off too easy
