Another deathslinger post to fade into obscurity.
Yes, deathslinger desperately needs a buff or a mechanical rework.
For your first idea. Is it 60 seconds on a successful hit? because that would just turn him into a m1 killer with occasional trickshots. Not a fan of this idea.
For you second idea, faster ADS will never be re-implemented. Its a survivor salt guarantee and no penalty will ever offset it.
Your third idea is actually really interesting. Technical stat nerf but good skill is rewarded with more map pressure that DS needs. I like it.

Not sure about the instadown thing as a base ability. I do really like the scope add-on though! They absolutely should do something like that. As for base kit I had a few ideas for tweaks that might bring him back to his former glory in a way everyone can be happy with. Check it out and let me know what you think!

Before he gets buffed he needs to make a vocal sound when he's about to shoot. Every ranged other than slinger gives a sound before they throw a hatchet or knifes at you, slinger stays silent. This is my biggest annoyance with him. I run into walls, rocks, trees whatever since i have to run watching behind me 100% with him.

I don't think his core kit needs to be reworked. His values can be buffed a bit and he'd be in a better state such as slightly faster aim in time, slightly faster reload speed (aiming out and missed shot speeds should remain as they are), and bring his TR back to 24m so he can have that hunter feeling again and can actually reach a location without survivors pre running away so far that he can't reach them. An add-on pass would be nice for him as well.

The only change I'd like to see is to have his maximum range increased from 18 metres. Even just an extra 2 metres would make a huge difference.

i would be satisfied to see his nerfs reverted honestly...
