You can use any gun (flamer and bolter are the most powerful for zealot imo) but the recon lasgun allows you to quickly take out far-away threats like bombers and snipers that you can't get with your throwing knives sometimes. The lasgun with infernus synergizes well with your high crit chance and also allows you to quickly stack a fire dot on bosses for extra damage.
You're also free to take any blitz you like but I'm so used to playing with throwing knives that i can't use other zealot blitzes. You can also animation cancel your ranged weapon's pullout animation if needed with knives. Knives also allow you to quicky take out specials/disablers (trappers) when you're in melee combat without having to switch weapons.
You shouldn't be afraid to rush gunners with this build to take pressure off your team. As long as you're critting you have so much toughness damage reduction that you can easily recuperate any lost toughness.
