Shooting at the 1984 Summer Olympics

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Shooting at the 1984 Summer Olympics took place at Prado, Los Angeles, California. The games were historic as the first time women's events were included and also saw the inclusion of 10 m Air Rifle. However, the shooting competitions were severely tainted by the fact that the games were boycotted by the entire Eastern Bloc, normally dominating most shooting events.
