Recoil is not necessary for a rifle to function. It is a by product of the mass of the projecticle being sent down the bore by expanding gases of burning gun powder.

How does elastic recoil function in breathing?

During exhalation, elastic recoil is responsible for the passive recoil of the lungs and chest wall. As the diaphragm and external intercostal muscles relax, the elastic fibers in the lungs and chest wall recoil, pushing air out of the lungs. This process helps to expel air from the lungs and facilitates the breathing cycle.
