Guardsman rifle with an ATN X-Sight 5

In this video, I take a look at the new Guardsman rifle with an ATN X-Sight 5 digital day/night scope. Digital scopes can record video and work in low light, which makes them a popular choice for hunters and shooters.

What a digital day/night scope offers

  • Video recording: capture your shots and hunts.
  • Low-light use: works when daylight fades.
