Claymore shotgun.
And the foldable blades can be removed at certain points to make smaller swords as an emergency precaution.
So really it's 3 weapons in one.
Maybe 4 if those blades can form a double sided sword.

I've been thinking I'd build some kind of a sickle sword with a blade that folds backward over the handle to form a P90 styled SMG, but I haven't quite figured out how that would work, may have to draw it some time.

I can't tell you what weapon I would build (because I'd rather have a weapon built for me by someone with more experience with weapon design than me), but the weapon I'd prefer to wield would have the following characteristics:

A high caliber shotgun.
Depending on ammunition, it would enable high stopping power against soft tissue in close to medium range (think buck shot or flechettes cartridge) with little penetration for maximum energy delivery, or solid shot (slug or sabot) with high impact, high penetration but little stopping power against soft targets.

Preferably a twin loading/fire mechanism, one for magazine fed, semi-automatic fire, one for tube-held, manual loaded pump action fire.
Possibly built as side-by-side barrel alignment, so that turning the weapon by 90° will have the active barrel centered.
The stock would have a revolving trigger mechanism so that only the barrel and magazine mechanics turn, so that I when ever I snap the weapon into the other configuration, the stock and trigger action stays in position and automatically snaps connected to the switched configuration.

Different weapon configurations to be able to switch between used ammunition on the fly without having to eject and switch magazin to accomodate changing combat scenarios; think a bunch of Beowolves (soft targets, engaged with buck or flechette shots for maximum damage) and then suddenly a Deathstalker (hard target, where solid shot with high penetrative power would be needed and buck/flechette shot would be next to useless). The pump-action configuration would come with a direct-chamber loading mechanism just in case I'd have to use any other special ammunition besides the prepared loadout, so I can handload a round and have it ready to fire immediately without having to spend the previously loaded rounds for it to cycle into the firing chamber.

Since I'm not a believer in fighting enemies on their ground, I wouldn't add needless melee capacities to a gun when it doesn't need them, it would only add weight and encumberance, increasing wear-down during prolonged use, which is far more dangeraus imho.

I'd of course have a high powered sidearm as fallback weapon and an utalitarian knife for survival means and when I for some reason really need or only can use something else than my guns (in case of ammunition being out for example).

Gunlance, were such a thing humanly possible to wield. The RWBYverse doesn't seem to care too much about that, mind.

You really thought this through.

I actually just made this up on the spot. I thought what enemies the RWBYverse has (some bad eggs of a human/faunus, but overall mostly just Grimm, especially for a Huntsman) and then opted for the most effective weapon. And for hunting large, wild animals in a wild, natural environment, little weapons are more effective than a high powered gun.
And melee weapons are neat for action'y combat sequences, but not preferable. If you're using melee weapons, you're fighting within those creatures effective combat zone and I'd rather just shoot them before they have the chance to strike at me with claws, fangs or stingers.

Since the natural occurance of those creatures is out in the wild nature, long range weapons are of limited use (Ruby's sniper configuration for example is only really operating at peak capacity on long ranges where it's recoil and rate of fire are negligible factors!).
That goes double when we remind ourselves that the RWBYverse world is in a largely wild state with few enclaves of civilized habitats, which would consequently mean a lot of flora, i.e. forests, where again long range weapons are at a severe disadvantage (nevermind trees blocking line of sight and fire, your everyday foliage and humid forest clima will negatively impact ranged performance a great deal!).

So the only type of gun that was left is a shotgun-type. Immense firepower both up close and ranged (slugs or sabot rounds are surprisingly effective for the odd ranged use!), flexible ammunition pool and a proven concept.



I guess among all those magic knights, chibi sniper scythe reapers and cat people ninjas, I'd be the boring soldier guy.

Well, then the only thing we could do is have a performance competition in the RWBYverse, which of course I'd decline on grounds of it being foolish as we'd be in real danger if we ever happened to be in the RWBYverse and thus petty squabbles over how flashy someone fights being completely irrelevant for as long as they do their job and survive.

I wouldn't really care.
I'd be too busy pursuing other interests rather than getting into an argument with a cat faunus in a fancy top hat regarding how well I can fight Grimm.

No objection there.

Though it would be a shame for Cinder if I ended up in the RWBYverse ... because I would just shoot her and be done with it.
Then again, I am sure Weiss would appreciate my efficiency and Blake might feel a default companionship with me as a fellow cat faunus, giving me solid grounds to engage in relationships with my other girl interests in the RWBYverse.

It gets here eventually.
But the RWBYverse stuff has been all straightened out by the Retcon.
Me and Neo are no longer the same person, and me and Yang are no longer married.
So it's all good. Cept that last part :(

After a few minutes of thought after saying crossbow halberd a while back, I change my weapon to a Dust Kite.

Yes, it does sound weird, but that is the easiest way to describe it.

Because this page lacks a Cinder:

And even though this is labelled a WIP, I actually think just her outline with her sigil and the background is a pretty artistic picture on its own. More so infact than a filled out image of her in it I think.
