  • Just wanted to say a few awesome words about Melissa's concealed carry class! I could ask any question without feeling scrutinized! Definitely check out Modern Defense for a class!

  • Amazing job teaching my mom! She learned SO much and you were so clear and patient with her. Thanks so much for yet another great job done!

  • I've been going to DMs damn near every weekend for 5 years (except while I've been deployed of course). The ATV track is never overcrowded and there's always fun to be had. If you haven't been through his museum then you're definitely missing out.

  • The Colorado Nighthawks have called this field home for nearly four years now,  never had a bad experience through hundreds of times being out there. Extremely well run and your staff was always helpful, lending us a barrel cover or a squeegee!

  • My recent visit was more than I expected. I needed to sight in some hunting rifles, so I headed to DM's.  Thanks for your commitment to pleasing the people and your full service area, for us to enjoy. May God Bless you and America, Dave
