This email was sent to me by Larry Ahlman of Ahlman's 3,000 Guns in Morristown, MN. For those of you not familiar, it's the home base of the Minnesota Militia Paintball Team. It's also the location of the Giant Big Game VII (aka the fort game).

The Discovery Channel has a new series called, "Wreck-reation Nation." In Jan., they sent a camera crew to Ahlman's Range (So. Minn.) and filmed tanks dodging cannon fire and grenades -- as a recreational pursuit.
Concerned with giving guns a bad image, there was some reluctance on our part. Other than banning small arms, we had little control over the filming and zero control of the script and story that will be put together to describe these actions. Now we're sort of holding our breath, hoping we've helped rather than hurt the cause of gun ownership.
We're told that this will be aired TONIGHT on the Discovery Channel (182?) at 9:00 Central Standard Time. Turn on your TV and watch it if you get the chance.
