Let me see...based on what I know...

Crescent Rose: The weapon itself could be possible to make, at least without it being capable of folding into a smaller form (Scythe-to-Rifle I mean). I saw some guy say "It would be too goddamn heavy to use properly"...well, not exactly. While it would indeed be heavy, there's a workaround to it's use that I've already seen in the show: Momentum. Just move it, let physics do the work. If you want more strength, fire while swinging to increase it's speed. Maybe we can't use it like Ruby does, but we can still use it well enough.

Myrtenaster: That's technically a normal rapier with a revolver barrel. It would be rather easy to make. The only thing that we wouldn't be able to do is make glyphs with it for obvious reasons, but we can still use it like any other rapier.

Gambol Shroud: It's somewhat more complicated. It's a sword inside a bigger sword, that is also a gun and it's blade is capable of acting like a small scythe (Forgot the actual name), and it's also connected by a ribbon/whip to the user's arm......in other words, I think it's possible but veeerryy complicated to both make and use (Props to Blake).

Ember Celica: While it would perfectly work as gauntlets, there's 2 problems: 1-It's also a shotgun, and like someone else said a mistake in the fabrication could make it blow your hands off, and even if it worked there's the recoil. 2-It's bullets are explosive, so if you try to use them in close-combat you'll blow yourself up, and using them in ranged-combat would require some distance to avoid the explosion.

Crocea Mors: It's just a shield that folds itself. This is possibly the easiest to make. Now, the weight itself would be the problem, but I'm sure it's not that heavy. And also how if it malfunctions it barely will work as a shield and a sheath.

Pyrrha's weapons that I always forget their names: The shield is obviously possible. The weapon is impossible. I mean, it morphs into it's different forms, not changes, but morphs. And I'm sure I saw it extend and grow momentarily during the fight against CRDL. That technology will take decades to be developed, so no-no.

Manghild: It's technically just a grenade launcher that can deploy a pole to grab it and use it like a hammer. That I'm sure is possible to make. Problem is, that I'm also sure that using the Grenade Launcher to hit X would eventually damage it, reducing it's perfomance at the very least. And making it look worse.

Stormflower: It's just a pair of guns with blades, we have already made those things since probably the XX century, only with less style. Though I don't know if we've made SMGs with blades.

Coco's weapon: Do I even have to explain this one?

Fox's weapon: They look like bladed gauntlets, which is perfectly possible to make, but I think I saw them extend somewhat when attacking, like with Pyrrha's. I don't think we have a good-enough technology for that.

Yatsuhashi's weapon: It looked like a big and heavy katana, maybe just an eastern greatsword or at least it's equivalent. I'm sure those have been made centuries ago.

Cardin's mace: It's just a mace, which can be made, but I think it can also cause explosions...further research is necesary.

Dove's weapon: It's Cervantes's gunsword. It's technically a gun with a big blade sticking out of it. Not really difficult, but aiming it is something else entirely, depending on how heavy the blade is.

Russel's weapon: It was a pair of knives, right? I suppose I don't have to explain.

I don't remember what Sky Lark uses, so I can't say anything about that one.

Merc's boots: Same case as Yang's shotgauntlets: We can make the boots, it's just iron boots. The problem is, they are likely somewhat heavy, and they are also a shotgun, so firing them while kicking....yeah, good luck with that, and what happens after that.

Emerald's...kamas?: Kamas have been made, and I'm sure they can still be made. But they are also guns...I think it's possible to make them, at least to a point.

Melodic Cudgel: You can make an improvised one sticking some fireworks or rockets at the end of a cane. But making the cane the rocket/grenade launcher would be more difficult. And then, there's the problems of the added weight by the rockets, and how are you supposed to refill it. I mean, if we put them one after another in a line, I think the 1st rocket would burn the 2nd, which could probably explode....ouch.

Cinder's weapon is her dress, filled with Dust. So unless we discover magic and make it stick to your fancy dress, then it's impossible. A pair of blades that combine to make a bow it's kinda possible, but there's 1 problem: The string.

Adam's Wilt and Blush: The katana is possible, the fighting style is not too hard to learn as one would think, but the shotgun-sheath is probably impossible.

Neo's umbrella: Well, it would have to be made of some material that looks fancy like a normal umbrella, yet strong enough to block and even reflect bullets. We have stuff like that, but it's not even a third as elegant.

Oobleck's flamemace Coffee thermos: Impossible. Just, plain, impossible for the moment. For the thermos to turn into a mace it's very hard to make. For it to also work as a flamethrower (Or was it a grenade launcher?) at the same time would be even more dificult. For it to in addition work like any other coffee thermos....this is quite a challenge.

Blunderaxe: Eh...sure, go ahead and make it. Perfectly fine to create, just make sure to not use it like a blunderbuss unless you don't care about your fingers or are very extremely strong to resist all of the recoil.

Penny's tele-blades: Well, you could do something slightly similar, chaining a bunch of swords with something. But it would be extremely hard to use, and making them float it's just impossible. And one will most likely cut him/herself before someone else if one tries to use it.

Bat-Zooka: Same as Oobleck's, though less dificult. I'm sure one can make an improvised one with the right things, like...I don't know, adding some small pole to one end of the bazooka to grab it like a bat, but then it may be damaged and have reduced performance. Not to mention it would be very goddamn heavy.

I don't include Glynda cause she technically uses The Force through her wand. Really, I bet she's a Master Jedi from Coruscant.
