88 Tactical

Next time you're in Tekamah, NE wandering around in the wood line, armed to the teeth, decked out to camouflage and raring to go storm a cornfield --where there's plenty of-- perhaps you should make a stop at 88 Tactical where you can do all of exactly just that.There is a multitude of classes offered at this facility, many of which involve marksmanship, self defense, rural patrolling and surveillance, survival, etc. Many of these classes are also offered to civilians for skill development, or even just as team building training for your office, Boy Scout Troop, My Little Pony Brony Support Group or girl's volleyball team.Did I mention they have a doomsday bunker built into the ground?The training staff here is fantastic, all with tons of real world experience. They'll have you out in the bush, snoopin' and poopin' like a pro in no time (think Rambo, G.I. Joe or the Predator, and I mean that actual Predator, and not that wimpy Schwarzenegger all cowardly-like and covered in mud).Did I mention they have a doomsday bunker built into the ground?If you set your training up, check and see if there is bunkhouse availability. Sure, you'll be camping like at summer camp with bunk beds, but you can also drink beer with the buddies and grill steaks, and for $50 a night you really can't beat that.Did I mention they have a doomsday bunker built into the ground?

88 Tactical has great facilities for shooting and they offer a wide variety of classes for beginners through intermediate shooters as well as concealed carry classes. They also feature a great members club and surprisingly good food for a gun range. They also have a fair selection of guns and accessories for sale as well. That's where the compliments end. 88 Tactical has horrible customer service. The staff in the store and gun range act like they can hardly be bothered to greet or help you even when you ask them to. I've had bad experiences with the staff during classes, when dropping off my firearms for gunsmithing, and when shopping. Today I stood at a counter waiting for an employee to help someone else, when he was done he took one look at me and then turned to help someone who came to the counter after me. I then walked around and looked at other products for about 10 minutes came back and watched him shuffle products around in a case for a few minutes before I asked him if he was helping anyone and he just said "I'm looking for something". I was in the store for 20-25 minutes and no one ever greeted me, asked if I needed anything, and actually ignored me. This is typical of this place. On another visit I had a counter person violently grab my pistol out of my hand when I handed it to them unloaded, slide to the rear, and grip first. The owners and managers must be exceedingly arrogant because employees usually mirror the behavior of their bosses. I would love to support a business like this with such nice facilities in the Omaha area, but I just can't give these guys another cent.
