Shooting at the 2002 Commonwealth Games was the ninth appearance of Shooting at the Commonwealth Games. Although the Commonwealth Games events were held in Manchester, England, from 25 July to 4 August 2002, the shooting events took place in Surrey and featured a record 40 disciplines (an increase of 10 from 1998).[1]

The shooting events were held at the National Shooting Centre in Bisley, Surrey (over 200 miles from Manchester).[2] The rifle and pistol centre and the National Clay Shooting Centre were both constructed specifically for the Games.

India topped the shooting medal table by virtue of winning 14 gold medals.[3][4]
