The NRA wants gun-loving ladies to pack heat in style.

Lacy lingerie linked to a gun holster was on display at last weekend's convention in Houston, along with several other female-friendly accessories, like a bubblegum pink NRA T-shirt, his-and-hers rifle sets, and bumper stickers that read, "A Woman With a Gun Has More Fun!" the New York Daily News reported.

To use the bra gun holster, "simply pull up your shirt with one hand and pull down on your pistol with the other," a product description on NRA's website instructs.

The holsters are made by Flashbang and can clip to any bra. They sell for $39.99. ANI
