Pretty sure a "real life" version of Ember Celica would just blow up your hands upon use. Keep in mind that these things are more or less wrist mounted shotguns where te barrel ends dangerously close to your fist.

Myrtenaster is indeed a no go simply because in order to make one you'd basically have to invent magic.

Crescent Rose would just be counterintuitive because even if you COULD put one together, the poor thing would be way too damn heavy for anyone to use efficiently.

Finally, I would say that even Gambol Shroud is a bit suspect in "realistic" design. Not only is this thing a sword within another sword (read: CLEAVER) but it's also a gun that can a chain scythe threaded by a ribbon that can not only hold Blake's weight but is also elastic enough to launch Ruby several hundred yards.

Yeah, a little bit of a challenge to recreate, I would say.
