I know we have all taken a look at the show Doomsday Preppers, well Wednesday the 7th there is a new show starting on Discovery right after Sons of Guns (9pm) called Doomsday Bunkers. In the premier they will be visiting Nebraska and looking at some of the facilities that 88 Tactical has and doing some shooting with the founder of Signal 88 Security and 88 Tactical. It gives a chance to check out some facilities that the NFOA may be able to make use of for activities in the future.

Thanks to everyone who watched the show. Not a bad series. Hope to see all the members here up on the range or at the facilities soon.

I really need to get back for one of the advanced pistol classes. I really enjoyed the basic carbine class.

I thought that they did a pretty fair job portraying Shea. With a number of these doomsday/disaster shows recently, the producers have intentionally portrayed preppers as crazy and fringe. I hope the positive exposure is a boost for 88 Tactical's business!

We have had mostly positive reviews on the show. Glad some people watched and know that we do have good instruction.

A woman who was on that "Doomsday Preppers" show is a member over on Arfcom, and she said they selectively edited her segments to make her sound like a whack job. Go figure.

The first rule of survival bunker is not letting anyone know you have one, certainly not on a nationally broadcasted TV show, in fact, what good will a bunker do you if 50,000 people show up there a month after a catastrophe?
-
Good thing they have more than 50,000 rounds of ammo. :o
Seriously though, the bunkers primary function is for training and for use as a storm shelter.
