"May my enemies always be my disruptor's targets."
Grammatically it works, tho I must say I prefer "pu'HIch" to your "nISwI'",
your note notwithstanding. nISwI' sounds like a calque to me. I'd stick
with pu'HIch; Okrand likely never gave thought to the fact that Klingons
always use disruptors and not phasers.
