Her metal arm isn't very heavy, though. She said she thought it would be a big weight but it actually feels natural, which means it doesn't have a lot of weight to it. Though, it's not like she augments her punches with recoil with Ember Celica anyway. The only augmentation is that whoever she punches additionally gets a face full of lead.

As for ranged capabilities, we've seen her use Ember Celica for range multiple times before, and with only one gauntlet, her firing rate has been effectively halved. Times she has used it for ranged that immediately spring to mind are


 * At least twice in the Yellow Trailer. Once while she was jumping down from the DJ booth to fight the twins, and once to detonate Junior's rockets before they could reach her.


 * Players and Pieces, against the giant Nevermore about... three times, I think. Once when all of Team RWBY were shooting at it, once after the Nevermore broke down the ruins just before Ruby came up with a plan, and once as part of Ruby's plan to get it to focus on her.


 * Never Miss a Beat, while she was chasing after Neon and to finish Neon off.
