Men’s 10 metre air pistol made its Olympic debut at the 1988 Summer Olympics. Erich Buljung equalled the world record (held by Vladas Turla and Igor Basinski) of 590 points in the qualification round acquiring a two-point lead over the new 50 metre champion Sorin Babii. Neither of them performed a good final however and Tanyu Kiryakov eliminated his entire five-point gap to first place.
