A smart firearms company should be able to sit down at their drawing board with hunters and come up with the best gun ever made that will not destroy their target. They should also be able to come up with the best home weapon for home self-defense. Remember it's self-defense, not let me kill someone. There's money to be made if these companies have the right mind set.
Well, there are rubber bullets and sand that can be shot out of a shotgun and disable an attacker, but not kill them. It would be possible to engineer such a gun. The difficulty would be getting the gun makers to lower their profit margin by trying something new and getting gun owners to accept something new.
