American Technologies Network, Corp. (ATN) has introduced the ATN MARS series of night vision weapon sights; the MARS 4X-3P and the MARS 6X-3P, both offer a new ATN proprietary feature; a two-color manual brightness of the aiming reticle.

This unique feature allows the operator a choice of color (red or amber) of the projected reticle depending upon operator preference and the lighting situation. Both the MARS 4X-3P and the MARS 6X-3P utilize the industry's leading 3rd generation ITT Pinnacle Image Intensifier tubes. The Pinnacle tubes provide superior performance in high-light or light-polluted areas, such as urban environments while minimizing any "halo" effects.

The MARS series of night vision riflescopes are CNC milled from a solid quality aluminum billet and fitted with titanium inserts. This one-piece construction makes the MARS series compact, lightweight, and extremely rugged. Utilizing top quality multi-coated all glass optics with a Mil-Dot reticle, the MARS 4X-3P and the MARS 6X-3P provide powerful 4X and 6X magnification, respectively.

The sights are nitrogen-purged for internal fogging resistance and also feature an automatic brightness control. Windage and elevation can be easily adjusted with precision. The versatile MARS series sights feature a tactical rail that enables the mounting of an IR illuminator or an IR laser and includes a mount for a Picatinny, 7/8-inch Weaver-style rail, or an AK style weapon.

Additional features include a low battery indicator, a digital remote control, and a day-time cover with an IR filter all packed securely in a Mil-Spec hard case with batteries (the MARS series accepts either one 3V CR123A lithium batter or one AA battery), user guide, mounting hardware, and an informative Night Vision instructional video.
