The Russian national team claimed gold in the 10m air pistol women's team finals at the Universiade.

On 11 July, the shooting competitions of the Summer Universiade 2013 in Kazan kick off at the Sviyaga Shooting Range.

Russian national team athletes do not feel pressure ahead of the Universiade competition, and do not feel the tension they have experienced during the Olympic Games in London, said participant of the 2012 Olympics Daria Vdovina, the member of the student team.

Russian national rifle and pistol shooting team is going to win the competitions of the 27th Summer Universiade Kazan 2013, as Alexander Alifirenko, Russian pistol shooter, said.

All conditions for a successful performance of the Russian shooting team have been created at the Universiade, said shooting competition director of the 2013 Summer Universiade in Kazan Sergey Demin.
