If you're goal is to debuff an enemy then I'd suggest picking up the Reach Spell metamagic feat for spells like Frostbite and Bestow Curse. There are a number of good debuff touch spells available to a magus and being able to cast them through your gun would be helpful.

It is a bummer that Enforcer requires melee range or I'd suggest focusing on Intimidate + Cruel weapon for some nice additional debuffs. Though Dazzling Display could work since you have Weapon Focus already.

Is third-party content available?

I've always been a fan of the Martial Training feat chain from Path of War. The stances, counters, and boosts can be very useful at times. Though on the downside it does eat a large number of your feats.
