Custom prestige class magic gunslinger

[cheezu]

So I came up with an idea for a fun character type that I wanted to make but couldn't find anything that does what I want so I thoughe I might try to build a custom prestige class to do what I want

So basically the thought was what if there was a gunslinger who instead of bullets could shoot rays or cones out of guns now I'm just looking for suggestions on how to go about building this and reference ideas
Also I want it to be relatively balanced
I'll post more as I make progress on the build and am hoping to have a fun class by the end

3.5 or Pathfinder? Because Pathfinder has two solutions: The Spellslinger, a wizard archetype who channels their spells through their gun, and the Techslinger, a gunslinger archetype who specializes is FRIKKEN LAZER BEAMS

Well it would be pathfinder and I'll look at those classes but what I was thinking was building so the class could enchant their ammo with a spells at the start of the day in the same way a wizard prepares spells
And try and figure out a balance of how many rounds he could prepare this way but I would place a restriction that he's unable to cast the spells any other way but the plus side would be he could soot multiple shots in a round given his attack bonus was high enough thus being able to deal a number of effects in a round but the spells would have to be less potent then their regular counterparts

Or, you can just refluff the existing class.

That's basically what I'm doing mostly looking for suggestions

Isn't it just as well that I have a base class for this? (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?327549-The-Spellslinger-3-P-base-class-PEACH)
