Given that Viridian Longbow exists, this seems OK. The {0} casting cost needs to be playtested and may need to be {1} (though if it went that way, the equip cost could come down to {2}). Overall a nice card.

Hmmm. Right, I think I'll just make it cost 1 and 2 to equip. Do you think I could push the equip cost to 1 though?

Equip {1} would make it too good for a common, as it then reads "1, tap a creature you control: Deal 1 damage to any target". My card Oscillation Sharpener has an additional cost of {1} to actually do the ping, and has still been used in playtesting to deal 3 damage or more in a turn. You need to be very careful with commons that have the potential to do that.
