  • Fast draw, also known as quick draw, is the ability to quickly draw a handgun and accurately fire it upon a target in the process. This skill was made popular by romanticized depictions of gunslingers in the Western genre, which in turn were inspired by famous historical gunfights in the American Old West. In modern times, fast draw can be seen both in sports and in military practices. The World Fast Draw Association (WFDA) is the international sanctioning body of the sport of fast draw. Unlike cowboy action shooting, fast draw is shot with special blanks or wax bullets. While some competitions are strictly against the clock, with the fastest time winning, many are set up as head-to-head single- or double-elimination matches. (en)
  • Saque rápido, ("fast draw" ou "quick draw" em inglês), é a capacidade de sacar rapidamente uma arma e disparar com precisão contra um alvo no processo. Essa habilidade se tornou popular por representações romantizadas de pistoleiros do gênero "Western", que por sua vez foram inspiradas por famosos tiroteios históricos no Velho Oeste americano. Em termos contemporâneos, o saque rápido pode ser visto tanto nos esportes quanto nas práticas militares. A "World Fast Draw Association" (WFDA) é o órgão sancionador internacional do saque rápido. Ao contrário do "Cowboy Action Shooting", o saque rápido é feito com munição de festim especial e/ou balas de cera. Embora algumas competições sejam estritamente contra o relógio, com o tempo mais rápido ganhando, muitas são configuradas como partidas de eliminação simples (chave única, o popular "mata-mata") ou dupla (duas chaves por ranqueamento).

  • Fast draw (również quick draw) – technika polegająca na szybkim wyciągnięciu krótkiej broni palnej (pistoletu lub rewolweru) z kabury i oddaniu błyskawicznego strzału w kierunku danego celu. Technika ta została spopularyzowana dzięki filmowym westernom – produkcje te bardzo często ukazywały pojedynki rewolwerowców na Dzikim Zachodzie, którzy w taki sposób mierzyli się ze sobą. Technika fast draw powiązana jest z tzw. hip shooting – czyli „strzelaniem z biodra”, które służy zaoszczędzeniu czasu na celowanie. Inna technika związana z quick draw to (pl. „wachlowanie”), który polega na szybkim odciąganiu kurka rewolweru jedną dłonią (lub palcami jednej dłoni) i równie szybkim pociąganiu spustu palcem drugiej dłoni w celu zwiększenia szybkostrzelności rewolweru (liczby oddanych strzałów w jak najkrótszym czasie). Technikę fanning zastosować można tylko w rewolwerach jednotaktowych (single-action), gdzie wymagane jest przed każdym strzałem odciągnięcie kurka rewolweru. Technika fanning (podobnie jak fast draw) spopularyzowana została również w filmowych westernach. (pl)
