On February 11th, at the 2026 Asian Shooting Championships, the Vietnamese shooting team participated in the final heats of the men's 25m rapid-fire pistol event, with the participation of Ha Minh Thanh, Vu Tien Nam, and Tran Cong Hieu.

Cong Hieu only scored 561 points, ranking 15th, and therefore did not advance to the finals.

Tien Nam did not achieve the best results and was eliminated early, finishing in 7th place out of 8 shooters with a score of 5 points.

Minh Thành competed calmly, hoping to find an opportunity to qualify for the medal group. However, Vietnam's best male shooter in the 25m rapid-fire pistol event only finished in 4th place with 16 points.

Although no shooter won an individual medal, in terms of team results, the Vietnamese shooting team achieved a total of 1,707 points, thus ranking 3rd and receiving a bronze medal.

This is also an important medal that the Vietnamese shooting team won during the competition in India.

Previously, the Vietnamese shooting team won 1 gold medal, 2 silver medals, and 2 bronze medals.

Silver medals were won in the women's 10m air pistol team event (Trinh Thu Vinh, Trieu Thi Hoa Hong and Nguyen Thuy Trang), and the men's 25m standard pistol team event (Pham Quang Huy, Ha Minh Thanh and Phan Cong Minh).
