The air rifles with safe handling adapted to persons with vision impairments enable blind and visually impaired persons to be better integrated as well as to participate in sporting activities.
The rifles are equipped with the VIASS Pro aiming system which works with sound. The higher the tone one can hear, the nearer they are aiming into the centre of the target.
The VIASS Pro aiming system was launched in 2017 in Austria.
About 50 blind and visually impaired persons have already expressed their wish to be included in sports shooting with air rifles with the VIASS Pro system, the federation said today.
