Garlean Gunblade is actually based on real life Gunblade and Lightning's Gunblade which has both sword and gun functions.



The real life name for Gunblades are called Pistol Swords.

On side note...

There is a real life GunAxe called Axe-and-Pistol stored in the Tower of London....
This is why I'd be interested in a true gunblade class. It's a historical weapon not seen outside of Final Fantasy. I have a firearms textbook that mentions they were rubbish because it really messed up the weapon's balance but it's still an interesting concept. I mean heck, stick a gunbarrel on a katana and I can try and design a Steampunk Samurai. Wouldn't that be fun?
