The Redeemer is a great weapon, and yes, get the stance for it. Always use stances on your melee weapons if for no reason other than giving yourself more modification points.

The great thing about the Redeemer is that the shotgun isn't just used at the end of a combo; simply pressing and holding either the quick-melee button or the fire button (while actually having the weapon drawn) will result in a single slash followed by a gunshot. Beyond that, if you press the same button again just as the wave of energy from the Redeemer's gun disappears, another round can be fired, and this can be chained forever as long as you keep getting the timing right.

TL;DR: It's a melee weapon with a powerful shotgun built into it that can be fired at will, requires no reloading, and has unlimited ammo. It's freakin' awesome and I hope DE never changes it.
