Men’s 50 metre pistol (then known as free pistol) was one of the thirteen shooting events at the 1992 Summer Olympics. Kanstantsin Lukashyk a 16-year-old Belarusian unexpectedly had the pre-final lead. The final became severely interrupted by a pistol malfunction originally assumed to be a technical fault in the electronic target system for Tanyu Kiryakov who was second but had to leave the competition short of finishing his ten shots.
