What if every infantry grunt had a set during the war and there is literally nothing special about them? Almost from the moment Jaune was introduced, I've said that his weapons might be first-generation dust-augmented weapons that only have the most basic capabilites. Yes, at the time they were built they were probably standard models.

But I don't even think it's a Dust weapon. I think the sword is just a sword, and the shield a shield. Why does every weapon in the RWBY universe have to be a magical gun-blade?
