Another one of mine, a dual swords/bow with some additions.

Name: Moonshot. (AKA: Moonshit)

Wielder: Aoi Tsukiakari.

Maker/Smith: Herself.

Classification: PGHB (Polearm Gunblade Hybrid Bow)

Weapon Derivation: Gunswords, javelins, bow.

Form 1 Design: Moonshot takes the form of dual single-edged swords with serrated blades.

Form 2 Design: The dual swords’ blades retract and can transform into dual hand cannons with long barrels.

Form 3 Design: The swords can also transform into glaives with curved blades. The weapons are surprisingly lightweight despite their size, and each glaive can separate into a javelin and short sword.

Form 4: The final and ultimate form of Moonshot is that of a large bladed bow bow that is formed by connecting both swords by the hilt. Aoi doesn’t use a quiver, as she can form ice arrows from the Ice Dust gauntlets on her wrists.

Dust Usage:

Form 1 has Ice Dust infused into the blades, allowing Aoi to channel ice in her sword swings.

Form 2 uses Ice Dust bullets.

Form 3: Same as Form 1, along with Ice Dust in the javelins.

Form 4 uses arrows made from pure Ice Dust and also has Ice Dust in the blades.

Usage:

Swords Mode: Aoi mainly uses the sword form of Moonshot for close combat, often using a lot of twirls/spins and slashing with both swords at the same time.

Polearm Mode: While she can dual-wield, Aoi only uses one of her weapons in glaive form while keeping the other one sheathed. This is mainly for close-range.

Pistols Mode: This is for when Aoi wants go medium-range. She uses both pistols and has a fighting style similar to gun kata in this form. Also uses the weapons to pistol-whip enemies.

Bow Mode: The combined bow form of Moonshot is only for long-range, or in other words when Aoi decides close combat is too risky and wants to snipe the enemy from a distance. Also uses the bow to slash enemies should they manage to close the distance. Also uses the bow form for Grimm hunting.

Planned/Possible Upgrades: Aoi is thinking of including a combined spear form and something about the scabbards.

Notes: Aoi’s based off of Artemis from Greek myth, hence the bow and the name “Moonshot”.
