Gold in that event was claimed by Manish Narwal, who finished with a score of 235.9, just 0.5 ahead of his compatriot Deepender Singh in second.
Singh did in fact briefly lead after the second round but was unable to hold his advantage, while the bronze went to Tomas Pesek from the Czech Republic, who finished with a score of 215.9 points.
In the women's 10m air pistol final the gold was taken by Italy's Nadia Fario, who came from behind the snatch the top prize over Turkey's Aysel Ozgan and Krisztina David from Hungary.
After the first stage the Italian sat third and she remained in the bronze medal position with just one round of shooting to go, but a superb final round saw her leap ahead of both Ozgan and David.
