Pentti Tapio Aleksi Linnosvuo was a Finnish sport shooter. Together with Alfred Lane, he is the only Olympic competitor to win gold medals in both 50 m pistol and 25 m rapid fire pistol - the technique differs much between these two events, and hence few modern top-level shooters attempt to excel in both.
