Please, I've literally already made a working version of Lightning's Gun Blade.

The ammo goes in the grip, just like a normal pistol magazine.

What do you mean by "the recoil would be impossible to control if the ammo type is the same in gun mode"? That sentence makes no sense. Lightning switches between gun mode and sword mode while fighting, not once do she use her gunblade like Squall and fires it while it's a sword.

You don't use the gun like a rifle with the stock against your shoulder. It sits above the forearm and you use the gun like a pistol or a revolver.

The tip is going to be destroyed due to how close it is to the barrel? It sits above the barrel in gun mode, sure, but in RWBY that means nothing. There are a lot of gunswords that have the barrels and blades in close proximity like that. And once again, it doesn't shoot when in sword mode, so there's no chance of destroying your blade or your hand.
