Revolvers like that existed, too. Not the most common thing, but if you look around for them, there's quite a few. Cylinder has two rows of chambers so you can have more shooty in rooty tooty, almost like double stacked magazines for automatic pistols but a century earlier.

Most of them seem to be Belgian, and most appear to be pinfire cartridge guns, which was this early and weird metallic cartridge which had a big market presence in Europe for a relatively short while, and basically nowhere else in the world. The primer is hidden inside of the case and a little tube with a firing pin juts out the side, which the hammer of your gun strikes. Here's one which holds 21 rounds.

It's fun seeing esoteric and exotic weapons akin to these in vidya, even if Shelly's is more reserved, at least aesthetically.
