A Grave suggestion for CertainlyT: Buying Shells and a Cigar.

First off I would like to say that these changes to Graves look interesting and would be looking forward to using that shotgun. However there was a thought that came to me and I wanted to share it with everyone to hear their thoughts and maybe...just maybe...it can come true.
What is the thought? **Buying extra Ammo Shells for Graves. **
So Graves now has 2 shells in Destiny and when the 2 attacks are used, he has to reload before attacking again. I was wondering if we, the players, can buy up to 2 more shells in the shop for Graves during games to have him hold up to 4 rounds before reloading.
Now the positive is that Graves can attack up to 2 more times before having to reload, meaning that he can get more damage off at once, especially with attack speed. HOWEVER there is 2 big downsides to buying the shells. First is the price: The extra shells will not be cheap. I was thinking the First shell be 1000 gold and the 2nd shell be 2000 gold. So that is 3000 gold the player would have to chose to spend either buying an item, or buying more rounds for his auto attacks. The second downside would be the reload time itself. More shells means more for Graves to load into Destiny, which in turns means a longer load time.
So in short
Prp: More auto attacks before reloading, more damage in a short time.
Con: Cost and longer reload time.
Now the con can be a little to costly for the pro, but that is where the last new item for Graves can come in. If you buy both ammo shells, you can get a special item for Graves called the "Lucky Cigar"
"A 'Lucky' Cigar given to me by TF back when we were a crew. I vowed not to light it until he is dead" - Graves.
As I thought here, this would be an interesting item for Grave cause of both his past with TF, and the whole "Graves can't have a cigar" meme. So what does this item do if you get it? Well....How about this:
Unique Passive-Lucky Destiny: When Graves begins to reload, there is a X% chance that all 4 rounds are loaded immanently
As you can see, the Cigar can add a little luck to Graves in that there can be chances were he can fire up 8 times with little to no reload times, but if it fails, he has to reload normally which can take time.
So again this can all come down to the player choice: Either they can spend the gold to take a chance on instant reloads and more auto attacks or spend the gold on items and keep Graves ammo and reload smaller.
Thoughts welcome.
Edit: I forget to mention that the ammo shells and the cigar wouldn't take up a slot. They would be like Rengar Necklace and appear about his picture.
