The ATN ARES series are an easy to use and rugged set of night vision weapon sights that easily mount to any standard weaver rail. The combination of robust casing and high quality image optics make the ATN ARES a very strong choice in weapon sight; they offer a number of different magnification options as well, making them brilliant choices for the night vision user in search of a night vision scope that can be of use in complex and long distance scenarios.
The model that you are looking at is the ATN ARES 4-2, which offers a Generation 2+ image intensifier unit with a resolution of 40/45 lp/mm. It also offers 4x magnification.
The ATN ARES series all come with Total Darkness Infra Red, so this is a unit that still offers superb functionality even in situations where there is little to no light for you to amplify off of. If you have any concern of being in a situation that is closed or cut off from external light completely, than a model that offers a Total Darkness Infra Red system is an absolute must. The ATN ARES 4-2 also comes with an Infra Red indicator as well as a Low Battery indicator right inside the 7.5 degree Field of View. This makes it easy to know when your battery is running low as well as ensuring you aren’t accidentally wasting valuable battery life with Infra Red on when it is no longer necessary.
The ATN ARES ships with an operation manual, a lens cap, a lens tissue, a packing box, a soft carry case, a warranty card, an IR450-B4, and a 1.5 volt AA battery.
This model ships with a two year warranty.
