Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - ATN 5x33L opinions

It seems these are being closed out for a cheap price.  About $175.  Any opinions on these.  Seems like it might be a good light duty scope for casual use on a CAR size rifle.  I see SWFA doesn't carry them any more and they are not on ATNs web site so I am assuming they are no longer made.

I've got one....its decent, I swear it isn't really 5X though, as my 4X acog magnifies more

For the price, I'd say pass....I paid about the same a few years ago, Im not real happy with it and it sits in my safe un-mounted collecting dust now....alongside other shitty scopes I purchased.

The center of the view is reasonably sharp, but softens at the edges. VERY narrow field of view. Its biggest problem is the weight. I feels like it was meant to survive a nuclear blast - I've seen plumbing fixtures that are not as sturdy. Tends to make smaller rifles top rather heavy. Its sitting in my closet also.
