Judging by the how it's held, I'm guessing that this would be a machine gun. That would suggest it's either inaccurate considering it's ammo capacity (Assault rifles have small magazines, but are held to the shoulder to aim, while Miniguns or Light/Heavy Machine guns are either on a bipod, tripod, or shot from the waist, but compensate for decreased accuracy with sheer number of bullets), and also would have odd recoil with the sword attachment.
Speaking of the sword attachment, it seems rather unwieldy because, if you hold it by the sword handle, you have a gun handle where your arm should be. Otherwise, you'd potentially be cutting at an odd angle instead of straight on.
FF8's was more of an overdramatic pistol with a bayonet end, but the Revolver-short sword was realistically more practical than a machine gun-long sword.
It's actually a little amusing that you're raging about the handle on Leon's (or whatever that other guy's name was) Gunblade when this handle is actually worse for the intended purpose. The only problem with the FF8 Gunsword is the angling of the handle relative to the actual blade (Making it look like a gun with a sword attachment, instead of a sword with a gun attachment), but otherwise, they actually have (Single-fire) guns like that :D

In ranged battle, this gun strikes me more as an autocannon; you'd have a large (10mm or greater) heavy shell that fires at a slow (2-3 shells per second?) rate of fire. The sword and the weapon itself would help compensate for the muzzle jump while the sheer mass of the weapon is used to keep it from getting ripped out of the hands of the user.
When things get closer, I'd say that slashing with the sword part would have been done one-handed, using the weight of the weapon and momentum rather than the user's strength to carry most of the force, to make a more hammer-like crushing attack from above (it also avoids the heavy shoulder and thigh armors, hitting the head directly or ripping into shoulders), and you'd only use the big long handle if you're trying to parry the blade, or make a two-handed cut (since then you'd be able to angle your arms around the trigger-handle).
