AoO against Ranged Weapon in Melee?

A character using a bow within someone's threatened area is subject to AoOs, yes.

Rifles don't exist in D&D, so the answer to that would depend on which particular d20 ruleset and setting you're using.
 


Have the npc take a 5 foot step away from the pc, then fire. The 5 foot step does not provoke an AoO and he is no longer threatened by the pc so he can fire without provoking an AoO (unless the pc has reach, that is).
