Why do you need a shiny? I'm confused, does the gun do the things better than the other versions? From what I understand it just has extra perk options which can roll on the regular gun.

To add to what was already said, they also have the choice for two origin traits (Willing Vessel & Runneth Over).

And triple perks now.

Correct, I have gotten hundreds of rolls of the normal gun, probably around 400-500 based on the number of Court of Swords runs. 2 of them have had subsistence/sword logic with bad rolls on barrel/mag/masterwork. Shinies just have 2 perks in each column, or in my case 3 in each column on 3 and 4 since i have maxed rep at the shaping slab. I am just wanting shinies to drop so i have a chance to actually get the roll of the gun I want. They seemed to be dropping fine in episode 1 in the nether and now they NEVER drop. So I dont care about the shinies per se, but the fact that they give a better chance at a decent roll since crafting is no longer a thing for some reason.
