HickokSports.com - History - Olympic Medalists in Shooting

History

There have been shooting events at every Olympics except in 1904 and 1928. The variety is almost bewildering in the early years, because there were so many highly specialized categories, such as dueling pistols and the 1873-74 Model Gras Military Revolver.

From 1968 through 1980, women were allowed to compete on an equal standing with men in all shooting events. Separate events for women were added in 1984.

If competitors are tied for a medal, the number of bulls-eyes is used as a tiebreaker in many events. When that happened, the raw score is shown below, followed by a slash mark and the number of bulls-eyes.
