I wouldn't go that far with machinist but if they do it most likely may be a Gun Attachment for level 61 to 70 skill that change the Gun skills into Melee skills. However, we already know how people feels about change a Jobs gameplay style and changing MCh gameplay from a Range user into a Melee DPS user may cause some bad friction so doubt this may happen.

However, considering the nature of Gunblades in FF14 currently being more Melee orinated for their combat with their Range combat as a secondary combat use we have seen so far in cutscenes they may make Gunblade a separate Job if they introduce a Gunblade user.
