SPITTING ON THEIR GRAVES: NRA releases app just a month after Newtown massacre that lets kids as young as 4 open fire on targets eerily shaped like coffins

A screenshot from the new iPad app "NRA: Practice Range" released Jan. 14, one month after the Newtown, Conn. massacre that claimed 20 children and six educators.

Ready, aim, misfire!

Exactly one month after the Newtown school massacre, the National Rifle Association has launched a free iPhone and iPad shooting game offering kids as young as 4 a chance to fire guns at coffin-shaped targets.

The free game “NRA: Practice Range” is offered on iTunes and allows would-be snipers to choose a weapon to fire at an indoor gun range, an outdoor range or for skeet shooting practice.

The free guns include a Beretta M-9 handgun, a Colt M-16 assault rifle with 15-round clip or a Mossberg 500 pump-action shotgun.

For 99 cents extra, players can “unlock” higher-capacity guns similar to one Adam Lanza used in the Sandy Hook massacre, including AK-47 assault rifles and an M-11 sniper rifles.

Adding to the horror, Apple, whose credo is “enriching lives,” approved the manufacturer’s recommended age rating of 4 and up for the disturbing game.

In the game, shooters can take aim at clay ducks, or coffin-shaped targets with bull’s-eyes at head and chest level.

ONE MONTH AFTER MASSACRE, PARENTS OF SLAIN NEWTOWN CHILDREN WANT NATIONAL DIALOGUE ON GUNS

The NRA-licensed game was designed by MEDL Mobile Inc.

In between target practice, young tykes can get “gun safety tips” like “always keep the gun pointed in a safe direction,” “stop shooting immediately if you think you have experienced a gun malfunction” and “use only the correct ammunition for your gun.”

It’s “the most authentic experience possible,” the gamemakers said, touting its real-life gunshot sounds and arsenal of free weapons.

It also offers the “right balance of gaming and safety education,” the NRA said, citing the link from the app to the lobby’s website.

Critics immediately blasted the powerful gun lobby, especially since the NRA itself blamed violent video games for contributing to Lanza’s deadly Dec. 14 rampage at the Sandy Hook Elementary School.

“If the NRA is looking for a new app, they should download Google Earth, because they seem to be living on a different planet,” said Public Advocate Bill de Blasio.
