Shotguns and deer rifles NORMALLY have MORE recoil than a 223. The 223 has low recoil and high velocity so it has almost ZERO back-kick (recoil) and still delivers high energy downrange - up to about 300 yards.
.........Pistols have the problem that the short distance between the back sight and the front sight makes it difficult to hit anything except at close range - and takes more practice than a short-barreled 223. Also, the pistol cartridges hit with WAY less knockdown power.
..........So, basically, the short-barreled rifle in 223 caliber is the weapon of choice for KILLING people. The NRA would block any attempt to ban any particular weapon, but AK-47 were banned years ago. An AR-15 in 223 would be an ideal weapon to ban because its main use is to KILL HUMANS.

You’re one funny guy. A .223 has more stopping power than a pistol round? My 1911 in .45ACP will knock you down a lot better than a.223 coming from a rifle or pistol. It’s posts like this that make people ignore you. You have no credibility. You just spew stuff that you wish was true just so you can troll your agenda.
