"Only in Russia" or "Only in Moscow" attractions in Moscow [closed]

"Only in Russia" or "Only in Moscow" attractions in Moscow [closed] - Brown Wooden Blocks on White Table

For our upcoming trip, I'd like to plan some less-known places, like "only in Russia" or "only in Moscow" style, besides the trivial places like Kremlin, MGU or Tretyakovka.

Maybe riding a bear or firing Kalashnikov, something to impress my 14-18yo kids, stuff that one can't find on Instagram.

Please recommend.
