    Dragonman's is absolutely insane!! It's a completely different vibe than any other shoring range you'll find (and I've been to quite a few too!). You feel the freedom and open range on the drive in. Tons of funny signage, shot up cars, zombies, and no trespassing signs everywhere! Check-in was a breeze. They have 2 ranges. I stuck to the range closest to the check-in area because it was capable of handling all the firearms I brought with me. The Range Safety Officers ran the range very well and kept things moving quickly. I felt a lot of freedom to shoot as I pleased. It was also cool seeing some of the fully automatic rifles getting fired (they offered them for rent). I was a little disappointed in myself because I showed up late and didn't take advantage of touring the WWII museum area they have. I plan on coming back just for that. They also have a paintball area and it looked like an area to ride ATVs and dirt bikes. Overall, this is my favorite place in the Colorado Springs area to shoot!!

    This place is absolutely incredible. My girlfriend and I headed down for the yearly opening day of the his museum and machine gun shoot. Mel B, also know and "Dragon Man", might have the most impressive war and weapons museum outside the Smithsonian itself. He has guns, machine guns, tanks, APC's, mortars, bazookas and vehicles. The tour is extensive and covers the revolutionary war through today. He covers everything from George Washington to the holocaust of WW2. He has hundreds of original uniforms, helmets, gear and even communication equipment. The tour takes about 90 minutes and you receive in depth background the pieces he has and how he acquired them. It's absolutely amazing. A true walk down history lane. The tour include his famous "50's" room whit hall sorts of memorabilia and cars etc from the 1950's. I simple cannot say enough about the museum. It has to be seen to be believed. As a gun store, this place is also first rate. I've purchased several rifles and pistols from Dragon Man and all the purchases have been easy, direct and honest. The prices are competitive and his daughter knows about everything there is to know about guns and their legal use. As a shooting range this place is awesome. It's well marked, outdoors, safe and simple. There are several ranges to choose from according what your shooting and the distances you are shooting. They rent guns of all kinds to shoot, including fully automatic weapons. They call Dragon Man the most armed man in America and k believe it. The press and politicians seek his opinion and various gun related matters and Mel is always happy to help. I highly recommend Dragon Man's as a museum, fun store and shooting range. They also have an outdoor motor or track and a machine shop. I can't really comment on those as I've never used them but I would guess they are as professionally run and useful as the the other rated attractions I reviewed today. Thank you Dragon Man for an incredible experience and a fabulous day out with my friends.

    Thanks Mel, for being YOU !

    I've been following this guy for a few years on Facebook & had it on my bucket list to come and visit his facility. I took the opportunity over the 20th year 911 Anniversary weekend, and WAS NOT Disappointed. Mel, his 2 Tour guides & daughter Melissa were VERY Accommodating. I took the War & Hot Rod Museum tour and was Amazed at everything! I've seen it plenty on Facebook but seeing it in person IS A MUST !!! So much History is packed into Dragon land - it was - in a word - AMAZING... I also brought along a couple long guns & shot them at his GUN range. The range was ALSO very nice! $10-12 bucks allow you to shoot ALL DAY - A great deal as well. Too bad AMMO is SO damned expensive though! Mel was NOT, an old senile , mean spirited guy, as some goofs had reviewed! He is very cordial, accommodating but very busy. He has WEALTH of knowledge. To ME, a NATIONAL TREASURE Loving the American Dream! I'd give the place 6 stars if I could! Best wishes to Dragonman from his friends in Niagara Falls NY USA

    This place is amazing! We did the guided tour.. All things military on display. The tour is about 2.5 hours in length. The staff is very knowledgeable and answered questions as we went along. There is a display for every war our American Heros were involved in. The owner himself is involved in the tours as well. The displays are put together very nice and you can get up close to see the details, please don't touch. There are a few graphic items on display so if you have a weak stomach, be warned. There is so much too see you will have to go through more than once to catch everything. The only disappointment that I have are that the uniforms and older cars are completely covered in plastic and it's really hard to see the details and the tour feels a bit rushed.

    Hands down one of the best private collections of Military equipment and uniforms. Mel (Dragonman) gives an excellent description of his collection, and is a friendly person in general. This collection is worth seeing. The store has a huge selection of firearms, and their staff is knowledgeable. Melissa, his daughter will go out of her way to help you and will help you select the right firearm for you.

    So worth the trip if you're in Colorado Springs. Everything is authentic. He said 95% of everything still works. Very cool.

    Cool place, I like the signs! The guy that checked us in was nice. They have targets & even machine guns for sale. The range is pretty big.

    At the museum, can you hold antiques?

    Most of it is rare and very expensive so touching the exhibits and frowned upon.

    Love the indoor play place for kids, the cafe for food and of course the selection …read more Great place!

    **WARNING** Monitor Your Purchas History!!! I give this…read morewarning, but even if your purchase history is not correct, they won't fix it unless you report to their customer service desk with information from their website and stand in front of them. I recently purchased a firearm from the Colorado Springs Scheels. While waiting for the Colorado Democrat's "cool down" period to pass, I decided I would register for a Scheels online account to track my purchases. After creating an account, I noticed it actually had all my purchase history, likely from using the same email for digital receipts on previous purchases. While looking at my purchase history, I noticed the firearm I purchased, but then noticed a second firearm purchased 1 minute later... Yet, I only purchased one firearm. The website shows receipts for all the purchases. The receipt for the firearm I purchased shows "Customer: Default Scheels" in place of my name. Yet the receipt for the firearm I DID NOT PURCHASE shows "Customer: James Parker" and shows it being purchased using two separate cards (a VISA and a MasterCard) - and using my name on the receipt. Additionally, I confirmed they offer a 5% discount for miliary veterans. I showed my veteran ID and then paid the total. Looking at my receipt, the veteran discount was not applied to my purchase... Yet, when I look at "my" other receipt, for the firearm I DID NOT PURCHASE, it shows Scheels applied the veteran discount to this mysterious second firearm sale using my name and account information and then applying a "Tax Exempt" ID number that I have never seen once in my life. I am not sure if who's information they used for the background check, they say I don't need a new background check to purchase another weapon as long as it's within 30 days... If this is malicious, it would make sense this next sale happened one minute later before a legitimate customer came to the counter. I'm not sure who they will be handing this other, paid for, firearm to - I just hope and pray it's not someone with bad intentions. When I called the store and asked to speak to a manager, I was transferred to Kevin. Kevin says this is beyond anything he can handle and that he would require me to return to the store in person to provide them with proof and documentation. After explaining to Kevin that all my documentation is from THEIR website, he still insisted I will have to bring the documentation from their website to their store for them to address in person. I used to think firearms sales transactions require strict record accuracy... until I purchased a firearm at Scheels. But at a minimum, customers should be able to trust that their information is protected and handled appropriately -- especially when it involves firearm transactions. I would highly recommend purchasing your firearms from a ligament firearms dealer before trusting a retail zombie like Scheels for your firearms purchase.
