Except DFG gives you about the same sustain, too. DFG will give you approx 50 hp/5 from the increased AP for your W as well as the reduced cooldown. Full equation:

((22+4.95*3+3.06*9+60+80+120+70+120)*1.05*1.3*.35+240)/(15*.6)-((22+4.95*3+3.06*9+60+80+120+70+65)*1.05*1.3*.35+240)/(15*.7)

And you get this sustain in combat and out.

The lifesteal/spellvamp on Gunblade will get you you about 75 hp/5, depending on enemy resists. For 15 hp/5 difference. Or 540 gold worth of stats. Considering Gunblade costs 400 gold more than DFG, you net 140 gold worth of sustain.

Do you value the nearly 1k extra burst damage of DFG at less than 140 gold? Not to mention the much higher DPS? It takes 5:30 for the extra sustain from Gunblade to give you the HP of ONE DFG activation.
