Duelling pistols at the 1906 Intercalated Games (Athens).

Participants didn't actually duel each other, but shot at plaster dummies dressed in frock coats, from a distance of 20 or 30 metres. The 20-metre event was won by Léon Moreaux (FRA), and the 30-metre event by Konstantinos Skarlatos (GRE).

Duelling was as demonstration sport in the 1908 Olympics, but never featured at another Olympic Games. An Australian poll held before the Sydney Games found that 32% wanted to see the sport in the Olympics again.
