Better address the length of pull issue too while we're at it, since that has a big effect on felt recoil.
And I wasn't assuming everybody with a semiauto just tries to hose 'em down, but too many do. I tend to think learn to shoot first, then go semi, and don't forget how to make the first shot count just because you have a quick follow up shot ready to go. I also tend to think in terms of what's going to function when everything else is gunked up and jamming. Single-shots, .30-30's, and bolt guns will run when everything else is down.
I looked at a Deerfield about four years ago. It works a lot like an M1 Carbine, which I liked about it, but magazines are expensive and you're limited in what you can do with it. It didn't seem to catch on around here.
