10m Air Pistol

Indoor · Precision · Electronic Targets · Olympic Event

✅ Free Equipment — Pistol Provided

The 10-metre Air Pistol is the flagship discipline at AGSR Sonipat and the ideal starting point for any new shooter. Participants fire from a standing unsupported position at an electronic target 10 metres away, using a compressed-air pistol.

At AGSR, this event uses our 2 electronic target machines that display scores in real time with decimal precision (0.0 to 10.9) — exactly matching ISSF competition conditions. Beginners use our 5 academy pistols completely free.

10m Air Pistol is physically accessible to all ages and body types, making it one of the most inclusive Olympic sports. It develops extraordinary focus, breath control, and fine motor precision.

ℹ️ Discuss Equipment with Coach

The 10-metre Air Rifle is another entry-level Olympic discipline that tests a shooter's ability to hold a rifle in perfect stillness while executing a controlled trigger pull. Unlike pistol, the rifle rests against the shoulder, requiring full-body stability from foot to cheek.

Air rifle demands exceptional core strength, breathing control, and mental stillness. It is widely regarded as one of the most technically demanding precision sports in the world — and one of the most rewarding to master.

AGSR trains air rifle shooters in the ISSF 3-position and 10m standing formats, with our electronic targets providing instant decimal feedback on every shot.

25m Pistol

Precision + Rapid Fire · Sports Pistol · Standard Fire · Olympic Event

ℹ️ Intermediate Level — Discuss Equipment with Coach

The 25-metre Pistol is a uniquely exciting Olympic discipline that blends two very different shooting skills — deliberate precision and split-second rapid fire. It is typically the natural progression for shooters who have mastered 10m Air Pistol.

The 25m event at AGSR encompasses two sub-disciplines: Sports Pistol (precision + rapid fire combined) and Standard Fire (multiple time-pressure series). Both demand exceptional trigger control, mental composure, and the ability to transition between focused deliberate aim and fast instinctive shooting.

Sub-Disciplines

🎯 Sports Pistol

30 precision shots (6 minutes per group of 5) + 30 rapid fire shots (3 seconds per shot at a turning target). Total 60 shots. Tests your ability to switch between patient precision and explosive rapid fire.

⚡ Standard Fire

Five series of 5 shots each at a stationary target, with decreasing time limits: 150 seconds, then 20 seconds, then 10 seconds per series. Pure speed-accuracy trade-off under pressure.

🏆 25m Rapid Fire Pistol (Advanced)

Olympic rapid fire at 5 turning targets — 5 shots in 4 seconds, 5 shots in 6 seconds, 5 shots in 8 seconds. For advanced competitive shooters aiming for national selection.

Skills You'll Build

Speed-accuracy balance — hitting 10s under extreme time pressure

Adrenaline management — staying composed during rapid-fire bursts

Target acquisition — finding the target instantly and shooting cleanly

Dual-mode shooting — switching between precision and reactive modes

⚡ Recommended Progression

We recommend at least 6-12 months of 10m Air Pistol training before moving to 25m. The fundamentals of grip, trigger control, and mental composure must be solid before adding speed.
