Controlling a device with different buttons makes perfect sense, but you should probably make sure that the code will only respond in one way.

Depending on how comfortable you are with LabVIEW, I'd probably take each sequence, of timed code and use SubVI from Selection to make it into a subVI.
Next, I'd combine the loops, meaning that one loop would read both joysticks combine the results and select one action for the shooter. Then I'd select one subVI to run. This will also make it easier to create new shooter routines.
