Strategy
Due to this item's decent spread, nice attack speed, and "boomerang" bullet action, it is an excellent tool for taking down more mobile enemies while on the move. If you miss the shot, the boomerang action might make up for it! Keep on the move - bullets generally return to the sender (don't worry, this gun's bullets won't damage you).
Its lack of knockback makes it a nice choice for team play, as it won't really interfere with your squad's attacks.
Avoid using this item against Quicksilvers, as its shock will give that type of slime benefits.
The high power of this gun makes it ideal for most situations, especially in areas with enemies weak to elemental damage. Overcharged and Overpowered.
Oddly, these returning bullets cannot break the sender's ice, should the wielder get frozen. It can break ally ice.

Economic Guide
Because this item is randomly obtained from a prize box, it can be quite expensive to obtain. Additionally, the gun is "new" and "very buggy (in a way that benefits players to the point of "cheating" in some social circles)," so it might be prudent to wait to buy - see if it gets nerfed by the game designers, or made available elsewhere.
On the other hand, it is very powerful and covers most combat situations very well, so the player won't have to invest in too many different guns if they wish to have a sparse arsenal.

Notes
This handgun was introduced during the Confection Prize Box Promotion in August 2014.
For a short time after its release, this handgun dealt Normal damage. This was promptly fixed to deal Elemental damage with the 2014-08-29 Release Notes.
It is currently very "Overpowered" - able to shoot through walls, blocks, and other solids. Mecha Knights do not shield up against this gun's projectiles. These are confirmed by support to be bugs, so these properties are unintentional.
