I got the below from a Dealer friend of mine as a heads up and offer to get me in. I declined as I have sent 2 of these back, ATN lies and release dates mean nothing to them, it has taken 2 years to get what they have now working, I have been burned by ATN. You on the other hand may be different, so in the interest of discussion I will post the below and interesting possibilities. I will give you the name and email of the dealer(a friend on 6.8 forum) in PM's only but I do not want to be involved or blamed...lol
Email from Dealer:
I was at a local show this weekend and can get special pricing, but more importantly priority ordering, on them this week before they are released at Shot Show. There is even a possibility of a free Shot Trak HD X with the order (while supplies with the manufacturer last). The new models are a 3x (3-14x digital zoom) and a 5x (5-20x digital zoom). Here are the differences per the vendor rep:
Thanks for looking at our X-Sights and lets see if I can answer your questions -
1. Main differences between X-Sight 1 and 2 -
Lets go with what the "2" has that the "1" doesn't:
RAV - Recoil Activated Video
Range Finder
Ballistic Computer (in June/July expected)
Turret focus
Interchangeable Mount Base - Prefer an ARMS mount, you can remove ours and install one, or larue, or etc.
Improved eye piece, improved resolution of eyepiece screen.
2. Literature on the new units -
Yes...and no. Our new web page and catalog will have all of the information on the new units. All of this (including a completely new web page) will be released at SHOT. Consider the BH show a sneak peak and early order opportunity.
3. Projected ship date - month of March.
AGAIN from the dealer not ME:
I would need payment up front and the understanding that these are not released yet, so you may be out that money for a while. The pricing on the new units is higher than the old ones. The 3x would run you $575 shipped and the 5x $600 shipped. If you have ANY interest, please let me know today although I may be able to order throughout this week. I have emailed the vendor.
