The Giga Shadow did fire internal blacksheets try to destroy Kai. I agree, Insects probably have a “black organ” (equivalent to the Divine personal guards’ blackpacks), but in the Giga Shadow it was not fully functional by the time the body was destroyed.
The blacksheet guns and the [i]Fore Shadow[/i] were probably mechanical systems designed after the Insect structure (in whatever physical or semicorporeal form it may exist) that generates its own blacksheets. [b]But[/b] the artificial blacksheets can’t be as powerful as the real thing. Why? None of the blacksheets fired from guns can hurt Kai, but the ones His Shadow produced in [i]I Worship His Shadow[/i] and [i]The Giga Shadow[/i] were clearly damaging him and would have destroyed him with further onslaught (His Shadow was no idiot, he let the bio-viziers create assassins invulnerable to conventional weapons, but they were always within his ability to destroy).
Note that there are at least two types of blacksheets from guns (some are bilateral, others spiral), and I think three designs of blacksheet guns. Blacksheet guns appear in [i]I Worship His Shadow[/i], [i]The Giga Shadow[/i], [i]Stan’s Trial[/i], and [i]Woz[/i].
I do not think the Lexx’s weapon is an Insect blacksheet system. It has ocular parabola, which seem to focus and redirect some kind of energy of external source, and are all in all entirely different from the systems of the [i]Fore Shadow[/i] and the Insects themselves. Plus they can’t destroy Kai.
