How Would i change a units range ingame.

[Geazergimli2]

I am using that Villager 40 Animation model, and i want him to use a bow,or a melee weapon... (hes a hero). and the only way i can think of solving that problem is when the hero gets weapon, change unit to a different unit (same villager but with bow animation and longer range). but if i do that the hero would not be the same level.
Someone Please Help

Change range? Make an upgrade based off of improved bows.
