Do you mean "How fast does the sound of a pistol being shot travels?" because technically, a sound cannot be shot. But all sound travels at the same speed. If I were to just yell at the top of my lungs, the sound I make would travel to someone's ears just as fast as if I shot a gun and someone heard it. All sound travels 340 miles a second, or 122,400 MPH (miles per hour). So the answer would be "122,400 MPH"
