Military Pistol (25 metres)

Discipline: Pistol

Military Pistol (25 metres) is a precision shooting event in which competitors fire a series of shots with a pistol at fixed targets over a distance of 25 metres. Final standings are determined by total score, rewarding accuracy, control, and consistency across repeated strings rather than direct head-to-head competition. In the early Olympic era, military pistol events reflected period firearms, variable equipment standards, and competition rules that differed from later international shooting formats.
