Public executions by hanging were quite a spectacle in the good old days. When a person is hung, the moment after the drop where the rope snaps tight either breaks the person's neck or it doesn't. The humanitarian thing was to let the person's neck break; this caused a quick death. However, for a better show, if the neck didn't break, the person would twitch and struggle and suffer death by strangulation, although this was considered sloppy work. An experienced executioner who had mastered the difference and could do either was said to have "gotten the hang of it."
Comes from the use of a musket. There was a time-delay between pulling the trigger, the flint striking, the gunpowder lighting, and finally the bullet shooting from the chamber. It was called the "hang (time)" Now, imagine, say, an animal running obliquely to you. You want to shoot it. But, you had to mentally calculate how far in front to aiim, because of the 'hang' of the gun. Get a new gun, the hang time may differ. Hence, "Can you shoot it?" "Not yet, but soon I'll get the hang of it."
"getting the hang of it" means getting used to performing a specific task. If you're learning how to drive a stick shift, for example. At first you drive all jerky and the car stalls a lot. But as soon as you "get the hang of it", you're used to driving smoothly.
