Fatikh Manyurov, the gunman's father, gave more details to Russia's Telegram 112 news channel. His son had told him he was working as a security guard at a foreign embassy, he said. That has not been confirmed, however.
His son was "morose" and dreamt of becoming a "master of sport" in shooting, said Fatikh, who is separated from Yevgeny's mother. He said he had rarely spoken to his son.
The Russian daily Komsomolskaya Pravda interviewed a shooting instructor at the Dosaaf club where Yevgeny Manyurov practised and took part in at least two shooting competitions.
The instructor, Oleg Solovich, said Yevgeny Manyurov "was a poor shot". "To be a good shot you need to train for a few years. He practised at our club for about three months," he said.
"He socialised normally, but came to training sessions wearing a long black raincoat - a Parka - with a hood. We advised him to take off his coat during shooting sessions, but he said he felt comfortable in it," he said.
The shooting came just hours after President Putin's marathon annual press conference, which went on for more than four hours.
At the gala evening, in the Kremlin Palace, Mr Putin stressed the importance of "intensive" FSB work to fight terrorism.
