After criticizing the video game industry for promoting violence, the National Rifle Association has released an app where users can take target practice on their iPhone or iPad.
The app, NRA: Practice Range, which was released Sunday, is intended to promote safety, training and education about guns and “puts the NRA’s broad scope of resources in the palm of your hand — with 2nd Amendment newsfeeds, gun law information centers and educational materials that you can access anywhere, anytime,” according to the app’s description on iTunes.
The app is free, but for 99 cents users can upgrade their M9 for a Beretta, Browning or Colt handgun. Users can choose between indoor, outdoor or skeet shooting. According to the iTunes ratings system, the app is appropriate for users who are at least 4 years old.
