Normal-damage Mixmaster idea: Chainsnipe Cannon

So, imagine a Snipe. Colorful little bird with a penchant for hovering using helicopter-like wings.
Now imagine that those wings were made of sharp metal instead of organic material.
Now, imagine something like a wooden Polaris that has a snipe perch inside its barrel. A weapon that flying, razor-winged snipes fly out of at a very high speed. It's perfect for a gun.

Assuming we get another Stranger prize box, I propose the 5* Chainsnipe Cannon as a normal-damage Mixmaster variant. Firing two razor snipes per shot, each shot that successfully connects would have those two Snipes fly off into the Clockworks after a short delay. The gun would not deal any status.

"This unique firearm was created when Spiral weaponsmiths, in a failed attempt to create an upgrade to the Node Slime Crusher, mixed biochemicals with scrap metal and the birds got into it. According to Warnel, this shouldn't even be biologically possible"

Thoughts?

I appreciate the positive comments. Also changes and explanation

I'm not sure if "jelly shield" in the flavortext of this contraption would work, so I'm changing it to "Node Slime Crusher" due to its potentially-biotic nature.
The concept is that a multitude of Snipes got into a metal-biochemical mixture and the material fused to their wings. I'm unsure as to whether or not I should specify that the effect is only temporary; we don't necessarily want rogue hordes of chainsnipes flitting about. You know, unless that's an idea the staff want to implement,

What the gun really needs to look like is a sling shot, Angry snipe Cannon

Hmm.

Couldn't you just make it a [***Sniper Mitt], [****Wrangling Glove], [*****Command Gauntlet] and have them be trained attack birds? You could just reuse the pointing animation sped up for the attack. No need to add cyborg stuff.

About the gloves

Yeah, you could...

...but that's less fun.
