First, it is rifle, not riffle. Second, no, or we would shoot tanks with a rifle. Cannon are more powerful. Finally, depends on the rifle. I have a .22 rifle and a .44 magnum pistol. The pistol is far more powerful than the rifle. I also have a .22 pistol, and a 30-06 rifle. The rifle is far more powerful than the pistol (in THAT example).
First of all,one is a rifle the other is a pistol depends on distance.Both effective at short range.LoL

No. A pistol is designed to be used with one hand. A rifle is usually Automatic except for Sniper Rifles and Firearms of a similar type. However, a pistol is Semi-Automatic.
