I have to agree with Correria on this one. A person with a rifle at close range will usually be more accurate than a person with a pistol. Pistols are not easy to master and to be an excellent pistol marksman takes a lot of practice. I would say overall I have found it significantly easier to shoot a rifle than a pistol. All three are great just depends on what type of threat you think you will encounter.
A rifle is more accurate at all ranges then a pistol. At close ranges I'm sure most people here could shoot both so well it wouldn't make much of a difference in accuracy.
