    I believe it refers to a defensive rifle.

    I have rarely heard the term social rifle, and if memory serves me correctly, I believe it means a non threatening type of rifle, such as a wooden stocked blued steel bolt action or lever gun. Not black plastic AR15 or an AK or something along those lines. I could be way off base, it’s literally been years since I have heard that term. And then it was only once.

    I have not heard the term before either but did find an article where the term is used for a defensive weapon.

    So I will agree with Jake B. and add a star for the interesting question

    I believe the “social rifle” would be a rifle used in a defensive manner. I’ve heard the use of so called “tactical” shotgun refereed to being used in “Serious Social Occasions”
