I want to give the Warforged Soldier monster from the Eberron book the ability to shoot a Laser pistol from their hand. How would i go in updating their CR.

I'm about to introduce some dangerous foes to my PC's, basically a custom Cybermen race using the CR 1 Warforged as a foundation. These "Cyberforged" are constructs instead of humanoids, lose the javelin attack action, but gains the ability to interchange their arm blade attacks for a Laser Pistol attack. As a bonus action the Cyberforged can shift their right arm between blade and laser form. The Laser Pistol deals 3d6 radiant damage (average about 9), with their multi attack this changes their possible damage/round from 9/14 to 15/20. Should i just increase their CR to 2, or is there something mathematical I'm missing.
