I was wondering for a while, I’ve been playing some movement FPSs so that is what sprouted this idea.

Basically, no. You can get hurt using a shotgun if you try to hip fire it or if the butt of the stock isn’t resting firmly on your shoulder, but it is not going to launch you backwards like you see in some films, nor will it launch a person being shot backwards.
